1 lb beef (filet mignon or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium/small red onion, cut into chunks
2 Roma tomatoes, cut into chunks
5 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch knob of ginger, minced
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp ají amarillo paste
1 tsp ground cumin
4 tbsp neutral oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Frozen French fries
Cooked white rice, for serving
Directions
Prep the ingredients: slice the red onion and tomatoes into chunks, and mince the garlic and ginger.
In a small bowl, stir together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, red wine vinegar, ají amarillo paste, and ground cumin to make the sauce.
Season the beef with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large pan over high heat and sear the beef in a single layer until deeply browned on all sides; set aside.
In the same pan, sauté the onion for a couple of minutes until slightly translucent. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, then toss in the tomatoes and cook briefly.
Pour in the sauce and return the beef to the pan, tossing until everything is nicely coated and heated through.
Meanwhile, fry the French fries until golden brown and crispy.
Fold the fries into the stir-fry (or pile them alongside) and serve with white rice.
