Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh garlic
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, do not pack
  • 3/4 lb flank steak
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1 bunch green onion, cut in 1 1/2 in strips
  • cooked rice

Method

  • Slice the flank steak against the grain and toss in 1/4 cup of cornstarch. (I use a large zip loc bag)
  • Make sauce: Heat 1/2 tsp olive oil, add ginger and garlic. Cook but don't burn. Add the soy sauce, water and brown sugar - bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and place sauce in a separate bowl.
  • Add 1 tsp oil and brown beef (if the beef seems oily you might want to take it out of the skillet and let drain on a paper towel)
  • Add sauce, green onions and cook through
  • Serve with rice.
