Categories     Steak

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
1/2 cup tamari soy sauce (aka gluten-free soy sauce. DO NOT use regular soy sauce)
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
vegetable oil, for frying (about 1 cup)
1 lb flank steak
1/4 cup cornstarch (verify it has no wheat or wheat flour)
2 large green onions

Steps:

  • Make the sauce by heating 2 tsp of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over med/low heat.
  • Don't get the oil too hot.
  • Add ginger and garlic to the pan and quickly add the soy sauce and water before the garlic scorches.
  • Dissolve the brown sugar in the sauce, then raise the heat to about medium and boil the sauce for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
  • Remove it from the heat.
  • Slice the flank steak against the grain into 1/4" thick bite-size slices.
  • Tilt the blade of your knife at about a forty five degree angle to the top of the steak so that you get wider cuts.
  • Dip the steak pieces into the cornstarch to apply a very thin dusting to both sides of each piece of beef.
  • Let the beef sit for about 10 minutes so that the cornstarch sticks.
  • As the beef sits, heat up one cup of oil in a wok (you may also use a skillet for this step as long as the beef will be mostly covered with oil).
  • Heat the oil over medium heat until it's nice and hot, but not smoking.
  • Add the beef to the oil and sauté for just two minutes, or until the beef just begins to darken on the edges.
  • You don't need a thorough cooking here since the beef is going to go back on the heat later.
  • Stir the meat around a little so that it cooks evenly.
  • After a couple minutes, use a large slotted spoon to take the meat out and onto paper towels, then pour the oil out of the wok or skillet.
  • Put the pan back over the heat, dump the meat back into it and simmer for one minute.
  • Add the sauce, cook for one minute while stirring, then add all the green onions.
  • Cook for one more minute, then remove the beef and onions with tongs or a slotted spoon to a serving plate.
  • Leave the excess sauce behind in the pan.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-sliced flank steak or skirt steak.
  • If you don't have Shaoxing wine, you can substitute dry sherry or white wine.
  • To make the beef extra tender, marinate it in the soy sauce, cornstarch, and water mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Be sure to cook the beef in a hot wok or skillet so that it sears quickly and doesn't overcook.
  • If you don't have a wok or skillet, you can also cook the beef in a large pot over medium-high heat.
  • Serve the Mongolian beef immediately with steamed rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This Mongolian beef recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet, savory, and slightly spicy. Serve it with your favorite sides and enjoy!
