Instructions
- Prep the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar. Set aside.
- Cook Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once hot, add the shaved beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook quickly until just browned, then remove and set aside.

- Combine: Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef and veggies, stirring well to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
- Serve: Serve the shaved beef stir-fry over rice or noodles. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, and optionally, red pepper flakes.
