CRISPY STICKY MONGOLIAN BEEF
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.

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!

An easy to serve appetizer. Although the recipe recommends broiling these in the oven, an indoor electric grill would work just as well. Prep time does not include marinating time.

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.

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.

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 for Making Mongolian Meat Sticks:
- Use high-quality flank steak. Flank steak is a lean and flavorful cut of beef that is perfect for making meat sticks. Look for flank steak that is a deep red color and has a fine grain.
- Slice the meat against the grain. This will help the meat sticks to be tender and easy to chew. To slice against the grain, hold the knife at a 45-degree angle to the cutting board and slice the meat into thin strips.
- Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes. This will help the meat to absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender. You can use a variety of marinades, but a simple marinade made with soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger is a good place to start.
- Cook the meat sticks over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the meat and keep it juicy on the inside. Cook the meat sticks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
- Serve the meat sticks with your favorite dipping sauce. A simple dipping sauce made with soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil is a good option, or you can use a variety of other dipping sauces, such as barbecue sauce, ranch dressing, or honey mustard.
Conclusion:
Mongolian meat sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or tailgating. With a few simple tips, you can make Mongolian meat sticks that are sure to be a hit.
