bistek~beef steak..filipino style!

bistek~is a Filipino slang for beefsteak. an all-time fave among Filipinos served especially in breakfast with garlic rice~super delish...

First, marinate the beef slices (half kilo) with half a cup of soy sauce,10 pcs kalamansi ( lemon or lime) and black peppercors for an hour or longer. Saute onions and garlic (i used 2 heads of garlic). Add the marinated beef. Stir fry for 15 minutes...add a sprinkle of sugar and 1 tbsp of oyster sauce. Cook until tender.

i just loved the citrusy taste of the kalamansi in the beef with a hint of black peppercorns...so Asian...so Filipino!
