Beef in Gravy is a classic and delicious gravy made with soft beef cuts cooked in a mix of sauces and aromatics. It is the perfect pair to rice, mashed potatoes etc.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs beef cuts tenderloin or sirloin preferably
- ½ stick unsalted butter
- 4 Tbsp oyster sauce
- ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp paprika

- 2 Tbsp cornstarch
- ½ white onion chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse and pat beef cuts dry, transfer to a bowl.
- Add in the oyster sauce, 2 Tbsp of soy sauce, oregano, salt, black pepper and paprika. Combine and set aside to sit for at least 2 hours.
- Heat up large skillet, toss in the unsalted butter and let it melt completely.
- Add in the marinated beef and let it sear on high heat for 3-5, then reduce the heat and keep tossing around with a spatula so it browns nicely.
- In a bowl, combine the rest of the soy sauce and the cornstarch. If too thick, you can add 1-2 tbsp of water, mix until cornstarch is well dissolved.
- Pour in the slurry into the skillet, cover and let it simmer on medium to low heat. It should begin to thicken in 5 minutes of cooking slowly.
- Adjust the seasoning if needed and turn off the heat when beef cuts have tenderized to your liking.
