Tender beef fillet, marinated in a spicy mix, gains depth of flavor, while aromatic oyster mushrooms add a subtle mushroom note. The sweet and sour sauce made from chicken broth, soy sauce, and black rice vinegar gives the dish a piquant taste and slight tartness. Fresh cilantro completes the ensemble, refreshing and garnishing the presentation. This dish is perfect for special dinners when you want to impress guests with an unusual combination of ingredients, as well as for connoisseurs of rich flavors and aromas.
