For the sauce:

Instructions

1. Wash the meat, pat dry, and cut them into the thinnest slices

possible. Season with salt and pepper, and coat with potato

and fry together for another 2 minutes, then transfer

everything onto a plate.

5. Add a second spoon of oil to the pan and fry the tenderloin on

high heat for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

6. Put the vegetables back into the pan and mix, then add the

sauce. Cook over high heat for about 2 minutes until the

sauce thickens. Mix occasionally.
