Steps:
- Combine all the ingredients and beef except for the cornstarch in a bowl and marinate for at least 1 hour.
- While this marinates, wash and prep all the veggies.
- Before cooking, transfer the beef to another plate to remove excess liquid and to come to room temp for about an hour.
- Coat each piece of beef in cornstarch. Heat a pan on medium high or high, then brown the meat on all sides in about 2-4 batches depending on the size of your pan.
- Once you have cooked all your beef, add them into a pan with the vegetables over medium-low heat, and stir for about 2 minutes.
- Plate the veggies and beef. Add some Maggi to salt to taste.
- Prepare and cook 1 c of rice as you would normally. I like to use a rice cooker and follow the instructions.
- In a large pan over medium heat, add oil and garlic until fragrant and brown. Stir the garlic so it doesn't burn.
- Add the rice and stir thoroughly to coat with the garlic.
- Add the tomato paste and continue to stir to incorporate the red coloring evenly throughout the rice.
- Add a few splashes of fish sauce and taste the rice. I would start with two dashes and build from there, you don't want to add too much saltiness since this will be eaten with the beef.
- Wash and prep all vegetables.
- Put 1 tbsp of oil in a pan over medium heat.
- Add the onions and bell peppers. Saute for about 2 minutes until the onions turn slightly translucent, but not too soft.
- Add green onions last to prevent them from wilting, stir to mix.
- Remove the vegetables and place aside in a bowl. You will be mixing these again with the beef.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, sesame oil and soy sauce and stir until the sugar dissolves. Toss in the beef. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Make the lime-pepper dipping sauce by combining the remaining 1/4 teaspoon sugar, black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, lime juice and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Taste and add more water if the sauce is too tart. Set aside.
- Prepare a serving plate by covering it with a generous layer of leaf lettuce, onions and tomatoes. Season the tomatoes with salt.
- Heat the oil in a wok on over high heat until the oil smokes slightly. Add the butter, and stir just until the butter melts. Add the beef, and stir in a circular motion. Simultaneously use the back of a metal spatula to press the meat against the sides of the wok to char. Cook until the meat is browned but still lightly pink in the middle, about 7 minutes. (Avoid having the meat simply boil in the liquid fat.) Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to the prepared serving plate. Serve immediately with the lime-pepper dipping sauce.

SHAKING BEEF (BO LUC LAC)
Steps:
- Combine the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar and chiles in a large bowl. Set aside.
- Place the oyster sauce, soy sauce and beef in a medium bowl and toss to coat the meat evenly.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 5 seconds. Add the beef and quickly stir-fry it until just charred on the edges, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add to the bowl with the lime sauce.
- Add the pineapple slices, if using, Asian basil and red onion to the beef mixture. Spread the watercress and tomatoes in an attractive manner on a serving platter. Arrange the beef mixture and all its juices on the watercress and serve immediately (if desired, with a warm baguette or steamed rice to soak up the juices).

Steps:
- Put beef cubes in a container with a lid. Whisk 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 4 minced garlic cloves, wine, 1 teaspoon fish sauce, 1 teaspoon black pepper, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and sesame oil together in a bowl until marinade is well mixed; pour over beef. Allow beef to marinate, 10 to 30 minutes.
- Whisk 1 tablespoon fish sauce, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon black pepper together in a bowl until dipping sauce is well mixed.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat; add beef and marinade. Cook and stir beef mixture, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, and 4 cloves minced garlic together in hot oil until beef is cooked through and sauce begins to thicken, 5 to 10 minutes. Adding garlic over several times during cooking will produce a better mix of flavors.
- Serve beef alongside dipping sauce.
