Mongolian Beef Stir-Fry

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mongolian Beef Stir-Fry.

1. Step 1

   To start, place your sirloin tip roast in the freezer for a little while until it’s firm but not completely frozen.

2. Step 2

   This makes slicing so much easier! Once it’s ready, cut the roast into strips that are about 3 inches long and half an inch wide, then set them aside.

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, dry sherry, sesame oil, cornstarch, brown sugar, crushed red pepper, and whole dried chile peppers.

4. Step 4

   Add the sliced beef to this flavorful marinade, making sure each piece is well coated.

5. Step 5

   Cover the bowl and let it chill in the refrigerator for 20 to 30 minutes to soak up all those delicious flavors.

6. Step 6

   While the beef is marinating, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

7. Step 7

   Toss in the green onions, cover the skillet, and lower the heat to let them cook gently for about 6 minutes until they’re tender.

8. Step 8

   Once they’re done, remove them from the skillet and set them aside.

9. Step 9

   In the same skillet, pour in the remaining 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and heat it up over medium-high heat.
