Mongolian Beef

I found this AMAZING recipe on Confessions of a Foodie Bride. Of course, I did change a few things to fit my families taste buds!

Mongolian Beef

Ingredients

      ·         1 lb steak, cut into 1 inch cubes. (we buy our beef from a meat locker and the steak  I use was already cut into cubes, wish I would have wrote down what it was!)

·         ¼ Cup of cornstarch

·         2, 1-1/2 tablespoon oil (keep them divided)

·         ½ teaspoon of ginger

·         4 cloves of garlic, minced

·         ½ Cup of light soy sauce

·         ½ Cup of water

·         ¼ Cup of brown sugar

·         ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes

·         ¾ of a small white onion, chopped

·         ¼ of a small white onion, sliced thin

Rinse off your cubed meat and pat dry. Coat the steak pieces in the corn starch, shake off the excess corn starch. Heat 1-1/2 tablespoon of oil in a non stick pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and the ginger, stirring until fragrant. Add the light soy sauce, water, brown sugar and pepper flakes. Cook the sauce for about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Add the second 1-1/2 tablespoon of oil to the pan. Add the beef and cook until all sides are browned. Put the sauce back in the pan adding the chopped onions and cook until sauce is thick. Garnish with the sliced onions.

Serve with rice.
