📋 Calgary Ginger Beef Recipe
  1. Slice beef (against the grain- see VIDEO in notes for instructions on how to do this) into thin strips

  2. Combine all batter ingredients and coat beef in batter.

  3. Add oil to a deep frying pan and heat on medium. *NOTE: I prefer to use a deep fryer for safety, but for some reason, I couldn't get it to work with this recipe! Even when I sprayed the basket with Pam, the pieces still stuck.

  4. Deep-fry coated beef, about 6 pieces at a time, until crispy, about seven to ten minutes.

  5. Remove meat with a slotted spoon. Set meat aside on paper towel to drain. Repeat with remaining meat, frying in small batches of 6-8 pieces (depending on the size of your frying pan.)

  6. Add sauce ingredients (except plum sauce) in a bowl and whisk together. Set aside

  7. Julienne carrots and thinly slice green peppers.

  8. In a wok, over medium - low heat, stir fry garlic, carrots, green pepper, sesame seeds and ginger in oil for about 3 minutes.

  9. Add sauce. Bring to boil for 1 to 2 minutes and cook until reduced for 5- 7 minutes on medium heat. Add plum sauce, whisk and cook for 1 additional minute.

  10. Add beef to sauce; stir to coat with sauce.

  11. Sprinkle with additional sesame seeds and serve over white or basmati rice. Add additional plum sauce for extra sweetness, if desired.

  12. Garnish with green onions (optional)
