Ingredients
Instructions
Marinate the beef: Place the sliced beef in a bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch, then toss until the beef is evenly coated. Let it sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Set aside.
Cook the beef: Heat the peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and stir-fry just until the pieces are browned on the outside (they don’t need to be cooked through yet).
Add aromatics & sauce: Stir in the ginger and garlic, cooking for just 2–3 seconds until fragrant. Pour the sauce into the pan and stir well to coat all the beef. Let it simmer briefly so the flavors come together.
Finish with scallions: Turn off the heat and add the scallions. Give everything one final stir to warm the scallions without overcooking them.
Serve: Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy hot with steamed rice or noodles.
