Instructions
- 1
Combine satay beef marinade ingredients with thinly sliced beef. Marinate the beef for at least 1 hour.
- 2
Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and stir-fry until softened.
- 3
Add marinated beef and stir-fry until the beef is around 70% cooked (as we will continue to cook the beef later in the air-fryer). Add dark soy sauce to give it some colour. Remove and set aside.

In a shallow dish, whisk in eggs, milk and a pinch of salt. Stack two slices of bread on top of each other, then dip the all sides of the bread into the egg mixture.
- 5
Brush some vegetable oil on baking paper and lay it in your air-fryer. Add one slide of bread (with clean side of the bread facing up), and spoon some satay beef on top. Then stack with the other slice of bread (egg-dipped side facing up). Gently press the edges down to stick both slices of bread together.

At 180˚C / 356˚F, air-fry for 6-7 minutes on one side. Gently flip the toast and air-fry for another 6-7 minutes (~14 minutes total).
