cool tip ! Important tip is to use same
amount of soy sauce and sugar.
If you do this a day ahead, reduce soy sauce.
And don't forget to put it in a refrigerator.
Add the juice
of 1/2 Asian pear to the beef, it will tenderize beef and give much
more flavor to the dish. Or you can add 1/4 kiwi.
Ask a butcher to slice the
beef very thinly.

But store bought beef, rather thick slice works as well.
