CRISPY STICKY MONGOLIAN BEEF



Crispy Sticky Mongolian Beef image

Recipe VIDEO above. This Mongolian Beef is super crispy and coated in a sticky salty / sweet sauce - but not TOO sweet! It's absolutely divine and everyone I've made this for has raved about it. Don't be daunted by the ingredients list - there are a number of repeat ingredients! I just like to separate them into groups for ease of following the recipe.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 oz / 250g beef steak ((rump, scotch or flank), sliced into 1/5" / 3mm slices (Note 1))
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp cornstarch/cornflour
1 tsp vegetable oil
2 tsp cornflour / cornstarch
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp soy sauce (light or all purpose, NOT dark)
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine or dry sherry, or more chicken broth (Note 2)
3 tbsp / 1/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
1/4 - 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil (Note 1)
1/4 cup cornstarch/cornflour
1/2 tsp ginger, finely minced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 scallions/shallots, cut into 1 1/2" / 4cm pieces on the diagonal

Steps:

  • Combine the Beef and Marinade ingredients in a bowl and marinate for 10 minutes (though you could even leave it overnight).
  • Mix the cornstarch with a splash of the water. Then add the remaining Sauce ingredients, including remaining water.
  • Add 1/4 cup cornstarch and use your fingers to lightly coat the beef.
  • Heat 1/4 cup oil in a wok (Note 2) over medium high heat. Add 1/2 the beef and cook the first side for around 45 seconds or until golden and crisp. Then flip (I use an egg flip) and cook the other side for 30 - 45 seconds until golden and crisp. Remove onto a paper towel lined plate. Repeat with remaining beef.
  • Discard the oil, leaving behind about 1 tablespoon in the wok.
  • Add the ginger and garlic and sauté for about 15 seconds. Don't let it burn!
  • Add the Sauce into the wok. Bring it to a simmer and let it cook for about 1 1/2 minutes or until it thickens into a glossy sticky sauce.
  • Add the beef and scallions, toss to coat and cook for a further 30 seconds.
  • Serve immediately with rice - or for a low carb, low cal option, try Cauliflower Rice!

Time 2h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound flank steak
¼ cup chicken stock
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons hot chili oil
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 bunch Swiss chard - rinsed, stems removed and cut into 1/2 inch slices
2 green onions, cut into thin slivers about 2 inches long
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Spread the flank steak out flat, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the freezer until partially frozen, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove beef from the freezer and slice across the grain into very thin slices.
  • Whisk the chicken stock and cornstarch in a freezer-safe bowl until smooth; whisk in the hot chili oil, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, sherry, sugar, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes. Place the beef into the sauce, stir to coat well. Cover and freeze until frozen, about 1 hour.
  • Remove from the freezer and allow to defrost, about 30 minutes.
  • Heat a wok over high heat until very hot, and pour in the peanut oil. Immediately add garlic, cook and stir in the hot oil until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Mix in the Swiss chard and green onions; cook and stir the vegetables until they turn bright green, about 3 minutes, and then remove from the wok.
  • Pour the defrosted beef mixture into the hot wok; cook and stir until the meat browns and the sauce forms a glaze, 3 to 5 minutes. Return the cooked vegetables to the wok, sprinkle with salt and pepper, mix to combine well; serve hot.

MONGOLIAN BEEF



Mongolian Beef image

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.

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 pounds (750 grams) flank steak, trimmed

4 to 6 dried chiles

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.

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.

MONGOLIAN BEEF



Mongolian Beef image

Easy stir-fry recipe

Provided by lnguyen

Time 30m

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb flank steak
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 egg white
1 pinch salt
1 tsp sesame oil
vegetable oil, for frying (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced
3 tbsp hoisin sauce
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
2 tsp rice vinegar
1/2 tsp chinese five-spice powder
1/4 tsp chilli paste, or to taste
1-3 tsp dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 large green onions
1 small white onion
1 tsp chopped coriander, to garnish

Steps:

  • Slice the flank steak against the grain into 1/4" thick bite-size slices. Dip the steak pieces into the marinade. Let the beef sit for about 30 minutes so that the cornstarch sticks.
  • Make the sauce by heating 2 tsp of vegetable oil in a saucepan over med/low heat.
  • Add ginger and garlic to the pan to fry, then add all the remaining sauce ingredients (minus the sugar)
  • Dissolve the brown sugar in the sauce, then raise the heat to about medium and boil the sauce for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens.
  • Remove it from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat up one cup of oil in a wok until its hot but not smoking. Add the beef to the oil and saute for just two minutes, or until the beef just begins to darken on the edges. Stir the meat around a little so that it cooks evenly.
  • After a couple minutes, use a large slotted spoon to take the meat out and onto paper towels, then pour the oil leaving about 1 tsp of oil in the wok. Put the pan back over the heat.
  • Add the onions, then add the green onions. Cook for one minute.
  • Add the beef back in and add the sauce. Cook for one minute.
  • Serve on a bed of jasmine rice and garnish with coriander.

Tips:

  • Use flank steak or skirt steak. These cuts of beef are thin and flavorful, and they cook quickly.
  • Slice the beef thinly. This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes. This will help tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a hot grill or pan. This will help sear the beef and give it a nice crust.
  • Cook the beef for only a few minutes per side. Overcooking will make it tough.
  • Serve the beef with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Mongolian beef sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or potlucks. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make these tasty treats at home. So next time you're looking for a fun and flavorful snack, give Mongolian beef sticks a try!
