Slicing and Marinating:
Cut away any fat or sinew from the meat. Slice it into thin strips approximately 5mm thick (about a quarter-inch). Lightly pound each strip to slightly flatten them. Place these slices in a bowl and add soy sauce, pepper, sesame oil, corn starch mixed with water; blend thoroughly. Let it marinate for around twenty minutes.
Sautéing:
In a frying pan or skillet over medium heat, warm up some oil before adding the marinated beef slices. Cook until they are browned on both sides while separating each piece as you place them in the pan; remove once browned.

Add satay sauce along with sherry wine,sugar,curry powder,and salt diluted with water.Simmer till bubbling.Return cooked beef back to your frypan.Cook briefly till tender which should take roughly one minute.
