Think you can't make Chinese food? Think again! This will make you look like a pro and tastes even better than take out. The flank steak is so tender it almost melts in your mouth. Make sure to prep everything first because the cooking happens in just minutes. The nutrition facts are off since the oil is used for flash frying and will be drained. From the Yang Sing restaurant in San Francisco.

The mandarin beef was good, but I would have liked it better if the sauce was a little spicier. I will definitely try this recipe again with some added chili peppers.

The mandarin beef was good, but the sauce was a bit too thick. I would recommend thinning it out with a little water or broth.

This mandarin beef recipe was a hit! The sauce was perfectly balanced - sweet, tangy, and savory. The beef was tender and juicy. I served it over rice and it was a delicious and easy weeknight meal.
