Sha Cha Beef Stir Fry
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce plus 1 tablespoon
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- Vegetable oil
- 1-2 tablespoons minced ginger
- 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Sha Cha Sauce
- 2 teaspoon sugar
- 5 scallions cut on an angle into 2-inch lengths
Instructions
- To the beef, add 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 2 teaspoons cornstarch and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Mix well. For more information and preparing beef, see Bill’s post on How to Slice and Velvet Beef for stir fries.
- Heat your wok over high heat until smoking. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and sear the beef until it just turns opaque (it can still be slightly pink). Remove the beef from the wok and set aside
- Reduce the heat to medium, and add another couple tablespoons of oil to the wok. Add the ginger and cook for 1 minute. Add the garlic, sacha sauce, and sugar, and fry this mixture for 2 minutes.
- Add the scallions and beef back to the wok, along with the remaining tablespoon of soy sauce. Increase the heat to high, and stir-fry for 1 minute, until the scallions are wilted.
- Serve with rice!
Notes
I add a little oyster sauce and sesame oil as well. I also marinate the beef for ~30min.
