Mongolian Beef is a Chinese dish. Thinly sliced beef, stir-fried in a sweet soy-based sauce, often garnished with scallions. Unclear of its exact origins - Wikipedia claims Taiwan - but undeniably popularized in America, and certainly not Mongolian.
This time, Mongolian Beef, following the recipe from The Woks of Life website (see Mongolian Beef), which also has a reference video on YouTube (see Easy Mongolian Beef).
Awesome. The beef, having been "velveted" (more on that next time) then deep-fried, was super crispy on the outside, ridiculously tender on the inside, as only beef from Chinese restaurants can be. The sauce, comprising only water + sugar + soy sauce, seemed too simple in composition to work, but man was I wrong - it was perfectly sweet, perfectly savory, enhanced by the loads of scallions, as well as underlying garlic + ginger + chilies. Perhaps the best Chinese dish that I've made, ever (see also 4.0 BY ME).
