Heat oil in a pot to 80% heat, then turn off the heat. Blanch the beef and onions together in the oil. Note: Blanching the onions first can remove their pungency. After stir-frying the scallions, add the blanched beef and onions, green peppers, and red chili peppers. Add light soy sauce and salt, and stir-fry for 3 minutes before serving.
