Preparation

Combine the garlic, whiskey, soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce and sugar in a mixing bowl. Mix well to dissolve the sugar. Add the beef and toss until well coated, then cover and leave to marinate for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, arrange the salad on a serving platter.

Heat a wok or frying pan until smoking hot. Add the vegetable oil and wait until it smokes. Add the beef and toss for no longer than 1 minute, taking care as flames will rise. Add a pinch of freshly ground black pepper, then arrange the beef over the salad.

Serve immediately, garnished with frangipani or marigold petals, if desired.

Chopping an onion

Cut the onion it in half across the base (leaving a portion of root on each half - this will help keep the onion together while slicing), peel the onion and place cut side down. Make multiple cuts long ways from top to bottom but not through the root at the end. The more cuts, the finer the dice.
