Mongolian Beef
Ingredients:
1 lb. sirloin or flank steak
3 bunches of green onions sliced lengthways in 2 inch pieces
1 clove of garlic
1 cup oil for frying beef
Maifun noodles
Marinade:
1 egg white
pinch of salt
1 tsp. sesame oil
1tbsp. cornstarch
1 1/2 tbsp. oil (after the 30 min. sitting of beef with marinade)
Sauce: (I usually double the sauce portion of this recipe)
1 tbsp. rice wine or dry sherry
2 tbsp. hoisin sauce
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. sugar
2 tbsp. water
2 tsp. chili garlic sauce
1 tsp. corn starch
Directions:
Slice the beef across the grain into thin strips. Put the beef strips into a gallon ziplock bag and add the marinade and close bag. Squish the marinade into the beef and let sit for 30 minutes. Then add the 1 1/2 tbsp. oil, squish around again and let marinate another 30 minutes.
While beef is marinating, prepare the onions. Wash and slice all the green onions lengthways, then into 2 inch pieces. Mince garlic.
Nonstick Wok (purchase at Sur La Table) This would work wonderfully for this recipe if you don't already have a wok.
Of course this is the one I really want! Calphalon Wok (purchase at Chefs Catalog)
