Mongolian Beef in the Slowcooker
Have you ever heard of Mongolian Beef? If you’re living in the US, you most likely have. Here in Europe, the dish is fairly unknown. And I thought it was time to get it introduced here as well. This simple dish is so flavour, I just love it.
Stew
Mongolian Beef is a very tasty stew. Perfect to prepare in the slow cooker. If you don’t have a slow cooker, that’s not a problem, as it can be prepared in a regular pan on the stove or in the oven. This dish is so delicious. With just a few ingredients and a little bit of patience, you’ll get a wonderful stew that everyone will love.
Ingredients
750 g stew beef (f.e. chuck)
2 à 3 tbsp corn starch
1 large onion
150 ml soy sauce
150 ml water
150 g dark brown sugar
2 cloves of garlic (crushed or finely chopped)
1 tsp freshly grated ginger
Instructions
Cut the meat into thin strips.
Put the strips into a zip lock bag and add the corn starch.
Seal the bag and shake until all the meat is covered with corn starch.
Peel and slice the onion.
Mix soy sauce, water, sugar, garlic and ginger.
Pour the sauce in the slow cooker.
Add the meat and onion and stir.
Let cook on low for 5 hours.
Serve over white rice and pickled vegetables.
Eet smakelijk!
