Beef and Onion Stir-fry-5Like I mentioned above, it is a very simple dish, no complex cooking techniques are needed. But some small tips could be very helpful for making sure the dish will eventually turn out well.

Tip number one, when cooking the onion, use medium heat not high heat. Because the high heat will burn the onion easily. Tip number two, cook the onion and the beef separately. Tip number three, add in the pepper last, because it requires the least amount of time to be cooked through.
