Black pepper stir-fry recipe

Hi, could anyone give me an easy recipe for black pepper stir-fry sauce please. There used to be a lovely Amoy one but it seems to be gone off the market.
Thanks

Daisy100,

This is my favourite.

3 Tablespoons of Oyster Sauce.
1 Tablespoon of Dark Soy Sauce.
1 Tablespoon Crushed Black Pepper.
½ Teaspoon sugar.
1 Tablespoon Veg oil
300ml of Chicken Stock.
Cornflour for Thickening.

Chicken or Sirloin Beef is ideal.
Green or Red Pepper
Onion.

Method

Mix the Oyster Sauce, dark Soy Sauce, Crushed Pepper, Sugar and Veg oil together.
Cut the meat, peppers and onion into thin strips.
You can, if you have time marinate the steak in a little of the oyster sauce and a little veg oil.
Heat the Wok until smoking – Add some Veg oil & some Sesame oil to the wok – It should start to billow smoke !
Add the meat, keep it moving and cook until about 80% cooked. E.g. the steak is still slightly pink.
Remove the meat from the Wok and set aside.
Re-heat the wok, add a touch more oil and cook the onion for a minute.
Add the red pepper and cook for a further minute.
Remove the onion and pepper from the Wok and set aside.
Re-heat the Wok and pour in the Sauce – you may need to add a little stock to the sauce to loosen it.
Cook the sauce for about 1 min (it should start to smell peppery) then add the remaining stock and return the meat and veg to the wok.
Cook out for another 2 min and thicken the sauce with some cornflour/water.

Serve with rice or noodles.
