Ingredients
- ½ cup fish sauce
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 head garlic, peeled and minced
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 pounds carabao meat, sliced thinly
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine fish sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and pepper.
- Add meat and massage with the marinade to coat fully. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for about 2 hours or overnight. Drain beef from the marinade.
- In a pan over medium heat, add meat in a single layer and water. Simmer until tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
- Add oil and pan-fry the meat, turning once or twice, until lightly browned and cooked. Serve hot.

Notes
- Slice the beef across the grain for faster cooking and a tender chew. To make slicing easier, freeze the meat for 10 to 15 minutes or until slightly firm.
- You can substitute beef cuts such as bottom round if carabao meat is unavailable.
