Method

  1. 1 Choose very fresh beef tenderloin, freeze it for 15 minutes to firm up the surface, then slice it into thin strips like matchsticks.
  2. 2 Mix soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, and pepper to make a sauce, then refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  3. 3 Shred the pears into strips, soak them in ice water for a few minutes to make them crispy, then drain.
  4. 4 Gently mix the beef with the sauce, avoiding squeezing it too hard to prevent the meat from becoming mushy.
  5. 5 Arrange the pear slices at the bottom of the plate, place the meat on top, create a hollow in the middle, and then place the egg yolk in the center.
  6. 6 Sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions, mix well at the table, and eat immediately while still cold.
