mongolian beef

 It sounds like you're asking for a recipe for "Mongolian Ribs" or "Mongolian Beef," which are popular dishes inspired by Mongolian cuisine. However, traditional Mongolian food is quite different from what you might find in American-Chinese restaurants. 


Here's a recipe for Mongolian Beef, a commonly enjoyed dish in many restaurants:


### Mongolian Beef Recipe


#### Ingredients:

- **1 lb (450g) flank steak or sirloin**, thinly sliced against the grain

- **1/4 cup cornstarch**

- **3 tablespoons vegetable oil**

- **4 green onions**, chopped into 1-inch pieces

- **2 cloves garlic**, minced

- **1 tablespoon ginger**, minced


#### For the Sauce:

- **1/2 cup soy sauce**

- **1/4 cup water**

- **1/2 cup brown sugar**

- **2 tablespoons hoisin sauce** (optional for extra flavor)

- **1 tablespoon rice vinegar** (or white vinegar)

- **1 teaspoon sesame oil**


#### Instructions:


1. **Prepare the Beef:**

   - Toss the thinly sliced beef with cornstarch in a bowl until well-coated. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes. This step helps to tenderize the meat and gives it a crispy texture when cooked.


2. **Make the Sauce:**

   - In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, water, brown sugar, hoisin sauce (if using), rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and set aside.


3. **Cook the Beef:**

   - Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef slices in batches (don’t overcrowd the pan). Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and crispy. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.


4. **Cook the Aromatics:**

   - In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed, and sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.


5. **Combine and Simmer:**

   - Return the beef to the skillet, and pour the sauce over it. Add the chopped green onions. Stir to coat the beef evenly with the sauce. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the beef is well-coated.


6. **Serve:**

   - Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with additional green onions or sesame seeds if desired.


This recipe creates a flavorful, slightly sweet, and savory dish that is quite popular in many restaurants but isn’t traditionally Mongolian. If you're interested in authentic Mongolian cuisine, dishes like "Mongolian BBQ" or "Mongolian hot pot" are a bit different, often featuring lamb and hearty, rustic ingredients.
