## FAQs
– **Can I use another type of meat in this recipe?**
Yes! Chicken, pork, or even firm tofu can substitute for the beef.
– **Can I use regular soy sauce instead of oyster sauce?**
Yes, you can, but oyster sauce offers a more complex flavor in the sauce. If you use soy sauce, consider adding a dash of sugar to balance the taste.
– **Do I have to use both sesame oil and vegetable oil when cooking?**
The combination of sesame and vegetable oil creates a richer flavor. You can use only one, but the dish might lose some of its distinctiveness.
