1
Mince 3 cloves of garlic, slice 3 slices of ginger, and cut 4 green onions into 2-inch sections, keeping the stem and leafy parts separated.
2
Slice the mushrooms and cut the bell pepper into bite-size pieces, preferably in triangular or diamond shapes for better presentation.
3
Slice the beef against the grain of the muscle fibers to ensure tenderness, being careful not to cut parallel to the fibers as this would make the meat tough.
4
Marinate the beef in a bowl with soy sauce, dark soy sauce, water, sugar, baking soda, cornstarch, and white pepper powder; mix evenly until all liquid is absorbed. Then add oil and sesame oil to the marinade and mix well.
5
Prepare the cornstarch and water mixture by stirring cornstarch and cold water together until the cornstarch completely dissolves.
6
Heat oil in a medium-high heat pan, add a pinch of sugar and salt to the hot oil, immediately add bell pepper and stir-fry for 50 seconds to 1 minute to remove the raw taste while preserving crispness and color, then remove from pan.
7
Add mushrooms to the pan and stir-fry for 45 seconds, season with sugar and salt, continue stir-frying for 30 seconds, add rice wine to create steam and quickly toss to cook without releasing excess liquid, then remove from pan.
8
Add more oil to the pan, briefly sizzle the ginger slices to release flavor, spread the beef in the pan and let the bottom brown slightly, add the green onion stems, then flip the beef and add minced garlic, stirring to combine evenly.
9
Add rice wine and let the steam evaporate, then season the beef with soy sauce and dark soy sauce, and continue stir-frying until the color is even.
10
Pour in the cornstarch and water mixture (stirring first as cornstarch settles), mix with the beef until a sauce forms, then add the mushrooms, bell peppers, and green onion leafy parts, quickly toss to combine and serve.
