Beef with Red Onions

---

(Red onions add a distinctive flavor to this dish)

Serves 3 to 4

Ingredients:
1 pound beef (flank or top sirloin steak), cut julienne
2 red onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 piece ginger, sliced
2 green onions, sliced diagonally

Marinade:
1 egg white
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon cooking wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch
A few drops of sesame oil

Sauce:
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon sherry

1/4 cup water (if desired)

Oil for cooking

Directions:

Cut beef across the grain. Add the marinade ingredients,
and marinade beef for about 15 minutes.

While beef is marinating, prepare vegetables and sauce.

Heat wok and add 2 tablespoons oil, allowing it to drizzle
down the sides. When oil is ready, add ginger and garlic.
Stir-fry briefly and add onions. Stir-fry until onions are
tender but not overcooked. Remove and set aside.

Add oil to wok. Add the beef, stir-frying until it changes
color. If desired, add water at this point to make a gravy.
Return the vegetables to the wok and mix well. Add the
green onion. Serve hot with rice.
