Black Pepper Beef (Bò Sốt Tiêu Đen) features juicy beef slices and crisp veggies in a savory and peppery sauce. This delicious beef stir-fry can be made quickly in just one pan.
In Vietnam, beef in black pepper sauce is a dish often served at local restaurants, in wedding banquets or special occasions. The Vietnamese name of the dish is “bò sốt tiêu đen“. I like to eat it with rice, but in wedding banquets, it can also be served with several slices of banh mi, plain steamed buns or fried buns. I think you may also see this dish in Chinese cuisine.
The dish is actually quite easy to make at home. I will share all the tips you need to know to make sure the beef will turn out juicy and flavorful with a pleasant texture.
