Ingredients

• 1 lb. sirloin or flank steak thinly sliced and cut into serving pieces
• 1 thumb minced ginger
• 2 teaspoons garlic minced
• 3/4 cup chopped scallions
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon brown sugar
• 3 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Chinese cooking wine or sherry
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoon vinegar white, rice, or cane
• A bit of Sriracha sauce optional
• 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil optional
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon white pepper powder
• 3 tablespoons cooking oil

Instructions

• Season the beef with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper. Let it stay for 10 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan.
• Dust the beef in 2 teaspoon cornstarch. I do this by combining the beef and cornstarch in a resealable bag, seal the bag with some air inside, and shake the bag until the beef is coated.
• Pan-fry the beef in medium heat for 1 minute per side. Do this in batches so that the beef gets cooked properly and the pan does not get over crowded. Remove the pan-fried beef from the pan. Set aside.
• Combine soy sauce, sugar,1 teaspoon cornstarch, cooking wine, hoisin sauce, vinegar, Sriracha, sesame oil, and remaining salt and pepper in a bowl.Mix well and set aside.
• On the same pan with remaining oil, add the garlic and ginger. Stir and cook until the garlic turns light brown.
• Put-in the beef. Stir.
• Pour-in the soy sauce mixture. Quickly stir and cook until the sauce gets thick.
• Add the scallions. Cook for 1 minute.
• Transfer to a serving plate.
• Serve with white rice. Share and enjoy!
