Method
- 1 Simmer the beef shank with ginger for 60 minutes, then let it cool in the broth.
- 2 Slice the stewed beef shank into thin slices across the grain to reveal the tendons.
- 3 Simmering the beef before stir-frying is the only way to ensure the beef is both tender and retains its beautiful shape.
- 4 Remove the fibrous strands from both sides of the winged bean and then slice it diagonally into thin pieces.
- 5 Sauté the garlic, then add the winged beans and stir-fry over high heat for 2 minutes until they are still crispy.
- 6 Add the sliced beef, season with oyster sauce, then coat with cornstarch and sprinkle with chili and green onions.
