ALBERTA GINGER BEEF



Alberta Ginger Beef image

Simply the best! Crisp beef, ginger sweet sauce, very hard to find outside Alberta, Canada. I almost cried when I found this recipe. The original Chef's name is lost to history, thankfully his recipe remains. Twice fry the beef if you like it extra crispy, which is the technique most often used in Alberta Restaurants. I have to give credit to Rhonda Parkinson for finding this recipe-bless her!
