Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup water with oyster sauce, rice wine and soy sauce; set aside. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the canola oil and swirl it to coat cooking surface. Add beef, spreading it out in a single layer, and cook without stirring for about 2 minutes, or until well-browned on the bottom. Transfer the beef to a rimmed baking sheet.
2. Add the remaining canola oil to the wok, then add peppers and beans, cook, stirring often. Stir in shallots, garlic and ginger, then stir oyster sauce mixture, add to wok, and cook, stirring often, for about 2 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp-tender and sauce has reduced slightly. Return beef and its juices to wok, add scallions, and stir for about 1 minute, or until beef is heated through. Stir in sesame oil, remove from heat and serve immediately. Garnish with cilantro leaves and toasted sesame seeds.
