Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
½ cup soy sauce
½ cup water
⅔ cup dark brown sugar
1 pound beef flank steak, sliced 1/4 inch thick on the diagonal
¼ cup cornstarch
1 cup vegetable oil for frying
2 bunches green onions, cut in 2-inch lengths

Steps:

  • Heat 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the garlic and ginger until they release their fragrance, about 30 seconds. Pour in the soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Raise the heat to medium-high, and stir 4 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce boils and slightly thickens. Remove sauce from the heat, and set aside.
  • Place the sliced beef into a bowl, and stir the cornstarch into the beef, coating it thoroughly. Allow the beef and cornstarch to sit until most of the juices from the meat have been absorbed by the cornstarch, about 10 minutes.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-sided skillet or wok to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Shake excess cornstarch from the beef slices, and drop them into the hot oil, a few at a time. Stir briefly, and fry until the edges become crisp and start to brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the beef from the oil with a large slotted spoon, and allow to drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Pour the oil out of the skillet or wok, and return the pan to medium heat. Return the beef slices to the pan, stir briefly, and pour in the reserved sauce. Stir once or twice to combine, and add the green onions. Bring the mixture to a boil, and cook until the onions have softened and turned bright green, about 2 minutes.

Categories     Beef recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces flank steak ((225g, sliced against the grain into 1/4-inch thick slices))
1 teaspoon vegetable oil ((plus 1/3 cup for frying))
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup hot water ((or hot low sodium chicken or beef stock))
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ginger
5 dried red chili peppers
2 cloves garlic ((chopped))
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 scallions

Steps:

  • Combine the sliced beef with 1 teaspoon oil, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Marinate for 1 hour. The beef should still be quite moist after it has marinated. If it looks too dry, add a tablespoon of water to it.
  • Next, dredge the marinated beef slices in the remaining 1/4 cup of cornstarch until lightly coated.
  • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and hot water (or low sodium chicken or beef stock) until the sugar is dissolved. Mix in 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce. If you don't have low sodium soy sauce, substitute 2 1/2 tablespoons regular soy sauce and 1 1/2 tablespoons water. The saltiness of various soy sauce brands varies, so give the sauce a taste, and adjust the amounts of sugar/soy sauce/water/stock to your own taste.
  • Heat 1/3 cup vegetable oil in the wok over high heat. Just before the oil starts to smoke, spread the flank steak pieces evenly in the wok, and sear for 1 minute (depending upon the heat of your wok). Turn over and let the other side sear for another 30 seconds. Remove to a sheet pan. Tilt it slightly to let the oil drain to one side (lean it on a cookbook or cutting board). The beef should be seared with a crusty coating.
  • Drain the oil from the wok, leaving 1 tablespoon behind, and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the ginger and dried chili peppers, if using. After about 15 seconds, add the garlic. Stir for another 10 seconds and add the premixed sauce.
  • Let the sauce simmer for about 2 minutes and slowly stir in the cornstarch slurry mixture. Cook until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  • Add the beef and scallions and toss everything together for another 30 seconds. There should be almost no liquid, as the sauce should be clinging to the beef. If you still have sauce, increase the heat slightly and stir until thickened. Plate and serve with steamed rice!

MONGOLIAN BEEF AND VEGETABLES



Mongolian Beef and Vegetables image

This takeout favorite is typically laden with beef and coated with a sticky-sweet sauce. Our makeover makes crisp-tender snow peas, broccoli, and carrots the star, with seared flank steak as the supporting player. We also balanced the blend of brown sugar, soy sauce, and sesame oil in the sauce. We've kept our version family friendly by omitting the heat, but you can add a sliced red chile or a healthy pinch of crushed red pepper if you like. You can also change up the vegetables: Try snap peas, mushrooms, red bell pepper, or cauliflower florets.

Healthy and Delicious Mongolian Beef and Vegetables image

Although traditional Mongolian beef recipes usually do not include vegetables, I wanted to make a healthier version of this dish. The entire family just loved this lighter version, even the children!

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb flank steak
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 cup snow peas
1 cup Broccolini, tops
4 green onions, sliced
1 tablespoon grated gingerroot
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup light soy sauce or 1/4 tamari
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons black bean garlic sauce (available at Asian specialty grocery stores and the Asian section of some larger grocery stores)

Steps:

  • Wrap the flank steak in wrap and freeze for 1 hour to make slicing easier. Then, slice into 1/4 inch strips. Toss with cornstarch and let sit for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make sauce by combining Hoisin sauce, Soy Sauce, brown sugar and Bean sauce. Feel free to add more soy for a saltier sauce, more brown sugar for a sweeter sauce, or more bean and garlic sauce for a more savory sauce. This is your dinner ~ don't be afraid to change it a bit :-).
  • Stir fry the veggies and ginger in 1 T canola until just cooked through but still firm. Remove from pan and set aside. Then add the remaining canola oil and stir fry the beef over high heat until browned, about 4 minutes or so. Return veggies to pan, and add sauce and cook for about 1 minute longer.
  • Serve over white rice.
