Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Beef

    Thinly slice the beef against the grain into bite-sized strips. This ensures tenderness.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Beef

    In a bowl, combine the sliced beef, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water until it is smooth. This will be used to thicken the sauce later.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

  3. 5

    Cook the Beef

    Add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally.

  4. 6

    Add the Sauce

    Pour the cornstarch mixture over the beef, stirring well to coat. Allow it to simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  5. 7

    Finish with Green Onions

    Stir in the sliced green onions and cook for an additional minute. If using, sprinkle with sesame seeds and red pepper flakes before serving.
