Creating Korean-style Sauteed Beef with Bean Sprouts & Cabbage is easy when you follow these steps:

1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, sugar, and black pepper. Add the sliced beef, tossing to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.

2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the beef marinates, rinse the bean sprouts and shred the cabbage. Chop the green onions and set aside.

3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

4. Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the hot pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

5. Stir-fry the Vegetables: In the same pan, add the shredded cabbage and bean sprouts. Stir-fry for about 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

6. Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked beef to the pan with the vegetables. Add chopped green onions and stir everything together for an additional 1-2 minutes.

7. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more soy sauce or sesame oil to enhance flavor.

8. Serve: Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
