Ingredients

• Beef sirloin - 300 grams
• Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
• Thai fish sauce - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Brown sugar - 1 tablespoon
• Lime juice - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. Cut the beef sirloin into bite-sized pieces, approximately 2.5 cm cubes.
2. In a bowl, combine minced garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, black pepper, coriander powder, cumin powder, and vegetable oil to create a marinade.
