Cut the beef rib eye into thin slices then set aside.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat then pour extra virgin olive oil into it.
Stir in minced garlic and sliced shallot to the skillet then sauté until lightly golden brown and aromatic.
Add sliced beef to the skillet then stir until just wilted.
After that, pour water over the beef then bring to boil.
Once it is boiled, reduce the heat and cook until the water is completely absorbed into the beef and the beef is tender.
Next, stir in red chili flakes and chopped cucumber to the skillet then sauté and cook until wilted.
Once it is done, remove the cooked beef from the heat and transfer to a serving dish.
Serve and enjoy.
