  • 120 ml Soy Sauce

Instructions
 

  • Coat beef strips in cornstarch and place on a plate. Let stand for about 5-10 minutes.
  • Slice the green onions and set aside.
  • Heat the sesame oil in a wok or frying pan, over medium heat, being careful not to let it get too hot. Add the garlic and ginger and saute for about 1 minute, being careful not to let it burn. Then add the soy sauce, water and brown sugar, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and set aside.
