Steps:
- Combine the sliced beef with 1 teaspoon oil, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Marinate for 1 hour. The beef should still be quite moist after it has marinated. If it looks too dry, add a tablespoon of water to it.
- Next, dredge the marinated beef slices in the remaining 1/4 cup of cornstarch until lightly coated.
- In a small bowl, mix brown sugar and hot water (or low sodium chicken or beef stock) until the sugar is dissolved. Mix in 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce. If you don't have low sodium soy sauce, substitute 2 1/2 tablespoons regular soy sauce and 1 1/2 tablespoons water. The saltiness of various soy sauce brands varies, so give the sauce a taste, and adjust the amounts of sugar/soy sauce/water/stock to your own taste.
- Heat 1/3 cup vegetable oil in the wok over high heat. Just before the oil starts to smoke, spread the flank steak pieces evenly in the wok, and sear for 1 minute (depending upon the heat of your wok). Turn over and let the other side sear for another 30 seconds. Remove to a sheet pan. Tilt it slightly to let the oil drain to one side (lean it on a cookbook or cutting board). The beef should be seared with a crusty coating.
- Drain the oil from the wok, leaving 1 tablespoon behind, and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the ginger and dried chili peppers, if using. After about 15 seconds, add the garlic. Stir for another 10 seconds and add the premixed sauce.
- Let the sauce simmer for about 2 minutes and slowly stir in the cornstarch slurry mixture. Cook until the sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Add the beef and scallions and toss everything together for another 30 seconds. There should be almost no liquid, as the sauce should be clinging to the beef. If you still have sauce, increase the heat slightly and stir until thickened. Plate and serve with steamed rice!

MONGOLIAN BEEF
This is another American-born Chinese dish that is part of our wok vocabulary. I will always firmly believe that dishes, like Mongolian beef and California roll, that were born in the States are authentic dishes. The secret to tender meat in the wok is the marinade. You will see this in many of my recipes. Baking soda tenderizes the meat, cornstarch and water create a slurry that brings in the baking soda and oil pre-lubricates the meat and keeps us from using too much oil in the wok.

Steps:
- For the beef: Slice the flank steak across the grain into 3/4-inch (19 millimeters)-thick slices on an angle to make planks then cut the planks into 3/4-inch (19 millimeters) cubes. Combine the cornstarch, baking soda and salt with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl and set aside. Place the steak in a shallow bowl and add the water, vegetable, and cornstarch mixture. Massage all the ingredients into the meat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 12 hours.
- For the sauce: Combine the oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, garlic and half the ginger in a small bowl and set aside.
- For the stir-fry: Heat the oil to medium-high in a wok or medium saute pan. Stir in the beef and cook to medium-rare, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Drain off excess oil. Add the garlic and remaining ginger and saute 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in the bell peppers and onions and let them cook until the edges of the onion and bell peppers begin to brown, about 2 minutes. Add the scallion whites, dried chilies and sauce, stir constantly and let it cook for about 2 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
- Transfer to a platter and garnish with the scallion greens.

Steps:
- Heat 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the garlic and ginger until they release their fragrance, about 30 seconds. Pour in the soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Raise the heat to medium-high, and stir 4 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce boils and slightly thickens. Remove sauce from the heat, and set aside.
- Place the sliced beef into a bowl, and stir the cornstarch into the beef, coating it thoroughly. Allow the beef and cornstarch to sit until most of the juices from the meat have been absorbed by the cornstarch, about 10 minutes.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-sided skillet or wok to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Shake excess cornstarch from the beef slices, and drop them into the hot oil, a few at a time. Stir briefly, and fry until the edges become crisp and start to brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the beef from the oil with a large slotted spoon, and allow to drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Pour the oil out of the skillet or wok, and return the pan to medium heat. Return the beef slices to the pan, stir briefly, and pour in the reserved sauce. Stir once or twice to combine, and add the green onions. Bring the mixture to a boil, and cook until the onions have softened and turned bright green, about 2 minutes.

Steps:
- Wrap the flank steak in wrap and freeze for 1 hour to make slicing easier. Then, slice into 1/4 inch strips. Toss with cornstarch and let sit for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make sauce by combining Hoisin sauce, Soy Sauce, brown sugar and Bean sauce. Feel free to add more soy for a saltier sauce, more brown sugar for a sweeter sauce, or more bean and garlic sauce for a more savory sauce. This is your dinner ~ don't be afraid to change it a bit :-).
- Stir fry the veggies and ginger in 1 T canola until just cooked through but still firm. Remove from pan and set aside. Then add the remaining canola oil and stir fry the beef over high heat until browned, about 4 minutes or so. Return veggies to pan, and add sauce and cook for about 1 minute longer.
- Serve over white rice.
