BEEF ONION STIR-FRY

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the flank steak, baking soda, cornstarch, oil, oyster sauce, and water. Mix until the liquid has been absorbed, and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, ketchup, oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and water. Set aside.
• Heat a wok over high heat until smoking. Add 1 tablespoon of oil, and spread the beef in the wok in a single layer. Sear the meat, undisturbed, for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until browned. Stir-fry for an additional 15-30 seconds, until about 75% cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok, along with the onions. Stir-fry until the onions are seared and slightly blistered, 60-90 seconds. Remove from the wok.

MONGOLIAN BEEF AND SPRING ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the garlic and ginger until they release their fragrance, about 30 seconds. Pour in the soy sauce, water, and brown sugar. Raise the heat to medium-high, and stir 4 minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce boils and slightly thickens. Remove sauce from the heat, and set aside.
• Place the sliced beef into a bowl, and stir the cornstarch into the beef, coating it thoroughly. Allow the beef and cornstarch to sit until most of the juices from the meat have been absorbed by the cornstarch, about 10 minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-sided skillet or wok to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Shake excess cornstarch from the beef slices, and drop them into the hot oil, a few at a time. Stir briefly, and fry until the edges become crisp and start to brown, about 2 minutes. Remove the beef from the oil with a large slotted spoon, and allow to drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
• Pour the oil out of the skillet or wok, and return the pan to medium heat. Return the beef slices to the pan, stir briefly, and pour in the reserved sauce. Stir once or twice to combine, and add the green onions. Bring the mixture to a boil, and cook until the onions have softened and turned bright green, about 2 minutes.

BEEF WITH GREEN ONION

HOME-STYLE BEEF-N-NOODLES W/MUSHROOMS & ONIONS

Steps:

• Try to find two 4 lb. chuck roasts, and cut the excess slab of fat off the top. Cut into LARGE bite-sized pieces because beef shrinks when it cooks. You want to end up with nice big chunks! :).
• In large metal roaster that you can use on the stove, lightly brown meat on all sides over medium-high heat in a little oil. You may have to do this in frying pan(s).
• *Pepper beef lightly to liberally with coarse ground pepper as you add it to the roaster or frying pan. (Should take about 10 minutes.).
• When beef is lightly browned on the outside, add broth, onion, soup mix, A-1, garlic, butter and a nice amount of salt. Add salt a 1/2 teaspoons at a time so you don't over do it.
• Bring to a boil, cover with lid, turn down heat and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
• Stir occasionally.
• Add mushrooms, recover, and simmer 15-20 minutes longer.
• Remove lid.
• Mix cornstarch and cold water, add, stirring. Simmer, stirring only occasionally, for another 5 minutes til thickened a bit.
• Fold in cooked, drained noodles.
• Serve with warm crusty bread and butter, and a side vegetable such as green beans, or salad.
• *You can add another 1/2 to 1 bag more cooked noodles if you want to stretch this out. I make it hearty, full of lots of meat, though; when it's being considered as a "main dish".
• If you stretch it out though, you may need to add a cup or so of beef bouillon. Just see what you end up with, add as needed.
• ***! This last time I made this, I added 1 tbsp horseradish and 1 tbsp spicy brown mustard to the pot while the beef was simmering. It was EVEN BETTER! *Don't worry, it doesn't taste like you added it, it just added more flavor and totally mellowed out especially after the noodles were added and sat on LOW HEAT for about another hour or so.I took this to my sister's Christmas party and everyone loved it! People even asked for the recipe. :) (I should have thought of it before, because that's how I make my pot roast anyways! :) And NO ONE knows it's in there!) *I used (about)6 1/2 lbs. beef, 2 1/2 bags noodles and added an extra 3 tbsp butter because I thought I had added a bit too much salt. It was really good! Hope ya try it! :).
