  • 1 teaspoon hot Chinese mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 large cloves garlic grated with a microplane

  • 3 tablespoons 45mL stout beer
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • rice for serving

Instructions
 

  • Place the steak in the freezer for 15 minutes (this will make it easier to cut).
  • In a small bowl stir together the ginger, mustard, red pepper flakes, garlic, honey, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
  • Remove the steak from the freezer, thinly slice against the grain then sprinkle on all sides with salt.
  • Place the cornstarch in a small bowl.
  • Stir together the beer and remaining soy sauce in a separate bowl.
  • Heat the sesame oil in a wok or skillet over medium high heat.
  • A few at a time, add the beef strips to the cornstarch, then add to the soy/beer mixture, then add to the skillet. Repeat for all beef.
  • Once the beef has started to brown, add the honey mixture as well as any of the beer mixture that may remain from the steak dredge, to the skillet.
  • Lower heat to medium, cooking until sauce has thickened.
  • Add to a serving platter, sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve with rice.
