🧂 Ingredients

• 1 lb Beef Steak (1 lb = 400 g) Chilled
• 1/8 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 Cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Corn Flour
• 1 Tablespoon Cooking Oil
• 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce

Instructions

• 1 Start with a well-chilled piece of meat: This will make it easier to slice
  thinly.

• 4 In the mixing bowl, mix together 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda with 2 tablespoons
  of water.
• 5 Add the thinly sliced beef to this mixture. Mix well, so that the beef is coated
  with the liquid.
• 6 Let it sit for about 25-30 minutes
• 7 Rinse the beef thoroughly under running water to remove any residue from the
  baking soda. This step is very important.
