Mongolian Beef over Rice

 This dish is delicious and very quick and easy to make.  It doesn't make a huge amount, though, so if your family is very big, I would suggest doubling the recipe.  I would say it serves about 4 adults.

Mongolian Beef over Rice

1 lb ground beef

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. pepper

1/3 cup soy sauce

1/2 cup beef stock

2 tsps. rice vinegar

2 T. brown sugar

1 T. corn starch

1 inch piece of ginger, grated

4 cloves garlic, minced

3-5 green onions, sliced thin

Hot cooked rice

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, stock, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and corn starch.  Set aside.

In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat.  Season with salt and pepper.

Reduce heat to medium and add garlic and ginger.  Cook about 2-3 minutes.

Pour the sauce into the pan and stir and simmer and thicken for 2-3 minutes.

Stir well until all the ground beef is coated with the sauce.  Add the green onions and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.

Serve over rice with steamed vegetables of choice.
