Ingredients

• 500 grams beef (sirloin or flank steak)
• 2 medium nashi pear
• 75 grams macadamia nuts
• 60 ml soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 large garlic cloves, finely minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, finely grated
• 3 stalks spring onions, sliced
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 50 ml water
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Peel the nashi pears and cut them into thin wedges or bite-sized chunks. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Add water and stir until smooth. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 5

Toast the macadamia nuts in the skillet for 2-3 minutes until golden and aromatic. Remove them and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Increase the heat to high and add the beef strips. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the beef is browned but slightly pink in the center. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 8

In the same skillet, add the nashi pear slices and stir-fry for 2 minutes until they soften slightly but still retain their shape.

Step 9

Return the beef and macadamia nuts to the skillet. Pour in the prepared sauce and stir well to coat everything. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the beef is fully cooked.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with sliced spring onions and serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
