Pro Tips

#1

Marinating the beef helps tenderize the meat and infuse flavor.

#2

You can substitute calamansi for lemon for a more authentic Filipino flavor profile.

#3

Ensure the onion and garlic are sliced thinly to ensure they cook evenly with the beef.

#4

Use a light spray of cooking oil to help the beef brown during the air frying stage.
