Description
Take the takeout with a recipe for quick & easy Mongolian Beef that will be on your table in 30 minutes or less.
Instructions
- Heat 2-tablespoons vegetable-oil in small saucepan over medium low heat. Add ginger & garlic & sauté until golden, about 2 mins. Add water & soy sauce, stirring to combine.
- Stir in brown sugar & increase heat to medium. Bring sauce to boil for 3 mins. Remove the sauce from heat & set it away.
- Slice flank steak against the grain into 1/4 inch pieces, then toss it with the cornstarch. Place coated pieces of steak in sieve & shake-off any redundunt cornstarch. Allow the steak to sit for 10 mins.
- Line a plate with paper tissues.
- Place wok or large skillet over medium high heat & add ⅓cup vegetable-oil. Once the oil is hot (not smoking), add the beef to pan & sauté until it's seared on all sides but barely cooked in center, about 2 mins. Remove steak from skillet with a slotted-spoon & transfer it onto a paper tissue-lined plate. Pour any redundent oil out of skillet.
- Place skillet back over medium-heat. Add prepared sauce to hot pan (it should come to boil almost immediately), then add the reserved steak, & cook at a boil, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened to the consistency of syrup, 3 - 5 mins. Add the sliced scallions & stir to combine. Then Serve.
NOTES
- This recipe will serve 2 - 4 persons, depending on your preferred serving size. It can also be easily doubled.
- The key to cooking with cornstarch is that, it must come to boil in order to work as a thickener & give sauce the perfect syrupy consistency.
