Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef

From: Here

Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs flank steak
1/4 cups cornstarch
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp garlic minced
3/4 cups soy sauce
3/4 cups water
3/4 cups brown sugar
1 cup grated carrots
green onions for garnish

Cut flank steak into thin strips. Place in a ziplock bag and add cornstarch Shake to coat.

Add olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, water, brown sugar and carrots in a slow cooker. Stir ingredients. Add coated flank steak and stir until coated in the sauce.

Cook on high for 2-3 hours or on low for 4-5 hours until tender. Can serve over rice and garnish with green onions.




Verdict:
This was so good. The thin flank steak was absolutely perfect for this recipe. I think we all agreed it tasted just like it would in a Mongolian restaurant (which we are really missing right now!) The flavor of this sauce was thick and sweet, and it also paired perfectly with the rice. It was almost as good leftover as it was the night I made it. I think this is one of my favorite meals I've ever made. A must-try!
