Day 36/365 is Mongolian Beef thewoksoflife.com (My 1 Year Cooking Challenge)

Prepare 225 grams of beef and marinate it in 3 tablespoons of soy sauce for 1 hour.

Dredge the marinated beef slices in 1/4 cup of cornstarch until lightly coated.

Heat 1/3 cup of vegetable oil in a wok until it just starts to smoke.

Add the dredged beef to the hot oil and shallow fry until crispy, working in batches if necessary.

Once the beef is crispy, remove it from the wok and drain excess oil, leaving about 1 tablespoon of oil in the wok.

Add 1 tablespoon of ginger and 1 tablespoon of chili flakes to the remaining oil and stir-fry briefly.

Add 1 tablespoon of garlic and stir for about 15 seconds.

Pour in the increased amount of soy sauce and 1/4 cup of chicken stock, stirring to combine.

Add 1/4 cup of brown sugar and additional white sugar to taste, stirring until dissolved and the sauce thickens.

Serve the Mongolian beef and enjoy.
