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.

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 pounds (750 grams) flank steak, trimmed
2 tablespoons (16 grams) cornstarch
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) water
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) vegetable oil
3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) oyster sauce
3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon (4 grams) cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) white vinegar
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1-inch piece ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into large dice
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into large dice
1/2 medium onion, cut into large dice
3 scallions, whites sliced on the bias in 1-inch pieces and greens thinly sliced on the bias, separated
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.
  • 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.
  • For the stir-fry: Heat the oil to medium-high in a wok or medium saute pan. Stir in the beef and cook to medium-rare, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Drain off excess oil. 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. Add the scallion whites, dried chilies and sauce, stir constantly and let it cook for about 2 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
  • Transfer to a platter and garnish with the scallion greens.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use flank steak or skirt steak. These cuts of beef are tender and flavorful, and they cook quickly.
  • To make the beef extra tender, marinate it in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and brown sugar for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • When cooking the beef, be sure to cook it over high heat so that it gets a nice sear. This will help to lock in the flavor and prevent the beef from becoming tough.
  • If you don't have any hoisin sauce, you can substitute oyster sauce or teriyaki sauce.
  • Serve the Mongolian beef salad over rice, noodles, or lettuce wraps.

Conclusion:

This Mongolian beef salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the salad is packed with fresh vegetables. The hoisin sauce adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the dish, and the peanuts add a nice crunch.
