Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin or flank steak
- 2 medium Onion
- 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Thinly slice the beef against the grain into strips about 1/4 inch thick. Place the beef in a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon of gluten-free soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of water, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Let the beef marinate for 10-15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Step 2
Peel and slice the onions into thin half-moons. Mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of gluten-free soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of water. This will be the stir-fry sauce.
Step 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the marinated beef in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Toss in the onions and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
Step 6
Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and ground black pepper to the onions. Stir-fry for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 7
Return the beef to the pan and pour the stir-fry sauce over the beef and onions. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the beef is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened.
Step 8
Transfer the stir-fried beef and onions to a serving dish. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired, and serve hot with steamed rice or gluten-free noodles.
