30 Minute Ginger Beef

Ingredients

• 1 pound skirt steak, sliced thinly
• 1/2 cup cornstarch
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for frying
• 1/2 cup white onion, finely chopped
• 2 cups carrots, julienned
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
• 1/4 teaspoon dried red chili flakes
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup white vinegar
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Instructions

1. Toss the skirt steak with the corn starch in a large bowl and set aside.
2. Over medium heat, add the vegetable oil and onions to a sauce pan. Sauté for two minutes until onions are translucent.
3. Add the carrots to the onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender.
4. Next, add the garlic, ginger, and chili flakes. Stir into the carrots and onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
5. Lastly, add the soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, black pepper, brown sugar, and sesame seeds. Whisk together.
6. Lower the heat to a simmer and allow the sauce to slightly thicken.
7. In the meantime, bring about 2-3 cups of vegetable oil to optimum frying temperature in a deep skillet. Shake the excess corn starch off the beef and fry each piece in batches until crispy. This process takes about 3-4 minutes. Drain the fried beef on paper towels.
8. Finally, toss the fried beef with the sauce mixture. Serve immediately.
