Mongolian Stir Fried Beef

Ingredients (serves 4):

1 ½ (680g) New York strip steaks, thinly sliced

salt & pepper

3 tbsp. cornstarch

2 tbsp. olive oil, divided

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp. ginger, grated

⅓ cup (80ml) tamari (or soy sauce)

⅓ cup (80ml) water

½ cup coconut sugar

2 green onions, sliced

1 tsp. sesame seeds, toasted

steamed rice for serving

Directions:

1. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then toss in cornstarch until evenly coated. Set aside.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and sauté for 1 minute. Add tamari, water and sugar and bring to a boil, stringing until sugar dissolves. Transfer the sauce into a bowl or jar set aside.

3. Place the pan back over the heat and add remaining oil. Sear the steak until evenly browned on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

4. Transfer the sauce back into the skillet and stir together with the beef. Simmer for 1-2 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.

5. Add in green onion and continue to cook for 1 more minute. Serve over cooked rice.
