Introduce the recipe and ingredients for Mongolian beef and fried rice.

Use three types of oil: vegetable oil, canola oil, and sesame seed oil.

Prepare low sodium soy sauce and cornstarch for the recipe.

Use liquid roasted garlic instead of fresh garlic.

Measure out mayonnaise and mix it with water for a sauce.

Use microwavable long grain white rice for the dish.

Prepare diced carrots and green peas as vegetables for the fried rice.

Cut the tops off the scallions to use later as a garnish.

Thaw ginger from the freezer and shred it once thawed.

Let flank steaks warm up to room temperature before cutting.

Preheat the oven to broil at 525°F and prepare a cookie sheet with PAM spray.

Place the microwavable rice on the cookie sheet and broil for about 5 minutes.

Chop scallion tops and set aside for later use.

Prepare the flank steak by cutting it into smaller pieces, back cutting rather than forward cutting.

Remove the cookie sheet with rice from the oven and check if it has browned.

Mix sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, and some scallion tops in a bowl.

Add frozen vegetables to the mixture and stir to coat them.

Make five holes in the mixture and crack eggs into each hole, using a flat surface to crack them.

Wash hands after handling eggs and return the mixture to the oven for four more minutes.

Prepare a mixing bowl with oil, soy sauce, and cornstarch for marinating the meat.

Add canola oil to the wok and prepare it for cooking.

Transfer the marinated meat into the mixing bowl and stir to coat.

Cover the bowl with saran wrap and refrigerate for about an hour to marinate.
