30 MINUTE GINGER BEEF

This particular beef recipe has been one of the most popular recipes here at Lord Byron’s Kitchen since it was originally published in early 2017. No matter how popular though, there were many readers who struggled to get it just right.

Today, I’m updated the recipe with new photos and better cooking instructions. I’m hoping that this will help you to achieve the best possible 30 Minute Ginger Beef at home. No more takeout orders needed!

THE BEST BEEF FOR THIS RECIPE

Before John.e and I started living together, I used to make Ginger Beef nearly once a week. It was such a great weeknight meal – easy to prepare and is very forgiving of cheaper cuts of beef. 

If you ever have one of those days at the grocery store when you’re craving steak, but the price is outrageous or the cuts are just not worth it, grab some cheaper steak and you’ll easily satisfy your beef cravings.

Personally, I think skirt steak or flank steak work best for this recipe. Both of these cuts are often used interchangeably, because they are both tough cuts of beef. But, sliced thinly against the grain, they are tender and delicious.

If you can’t find skirt of flank steak, you can certainly use other cuts of beef as well. I’ve used beef tenderloin for this recipe a few times and it works perfectly.

We shop at an Asian grocery store quite often. They stock thinly sliced beef that is primarily used for bulgogi or ramen dishes. It’s a little more expensive pound for pound, but it’s thinly sliced rib eye and it works very well for this recipe as well.

SUBSTITUTIONS OR VARIATIONS

This dish is one that I’ve perfected. Truth be told, I don’t need to refer to a recipe at all.  So, when I decided to post this recipe to my blog, I had to really think about how to get the measurements right.  One of the best things about this dish, other than the wonderful flavour, is that the recipe is very forgiving.

For example, if you love the flavour of fresh ginger, you can certainly add more in the cooking process. I love ginger and always use a lot of it. If you don’t have fresh ginger, you can use the dried ground ginger powder in a pinch. Since ground ginger is more intense, use only 1/4 tablespoon.

The carrots can be substituted for red or green peppers.  Just keep the amount the same. In some cases, when I’m really busy or running late, there’s not much time to carefully julienne the carrots. In that case, I just slice them thinly or I’ll even grate them.

If you grate them, use a larger holes on your box grater, otherwise the carrots will disappear in the sauce.

Increase or decrease the garlic based on your preference.  I love cooking with fresh garlic and I love the taste of it. I can’t ever imagine someone wanting to cut back on the garlic, but to each their own! If you want to use garlic powder instead, use 1/8th of a teaspoon for every clove.

I like to use light soy sauce in this ginger beef recipe, but you can use regular soy sauce. Light soy sauce will reduce the sodium levels, but it also prevents the flavour of the beef from disappearing. Regular soy sauce is great, but the light is better in this dish.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

I love to serve 30 Minute Ginger Beef with rice. Since this recipe brags about being ready in about 30 minutes, I often use instant or minute rice. If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you might recall that I cannot cook “real” rice to save my life. I always resort to instant rice whenever possible.

Also, I’m a little bit of nervous of really spicy flavours, so for me, the rice helps to cool down the heat from the dried chili flakes.  Since originally posting this recipe, I have been slowly increasing my spice and heat level tolerance. Now, I even add extra spice. But, you do you. You can even omit the dried chili flakes if you wish.

I’ve also served this dish with simple sautéed broccoli as well.  Since this beef dish is rather heavy, I tend to feel less guilty about eating a second portion of it if I serve it with broccoli. It’s also pairs very well with fried noodles.  Yum!

THIS IS WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR THIS RECIPE:

  1. Steak – Once again, skirt of flank steak is a great choice, but beef tenderloin will do just nicely too.
  2. Cornstarch – This is used to coat the beef before frying. Cornstarch is much better than flour for a dredge. It’s crispier and lighter.
  3. Veggies – One large onion, a couple of match stick carrots, some fresh ginger and garlic, and a few green onions too.
  4. Soy Sauce – There’s a lot of soy sauce in this recipe. I’ve used both low sodium and regular before. To be honest, I didn’t find any difference in the taste. If you want to lower the salt levels, use low sodium.
  5. Vinegar – I love the flavour of rice vinegar in dishes like this, but regular white vinegar is great too.
  6. Sesame Oil – Because I cook a lot, I have a bottle of sesame oil on hand at all times. If you have it – great! If you don’t, just use vegetable oil instead.
  7. Brown Sugar – Yes, you will need to use it. It helps to caramelize the beef, helps to create a sticky, sweet sauce. And, it will balance out the saltiness of the soy sauce and the tartness of the vinegar.
  8. Spices – Regular ground black pepper is used, but no salt is added to this dish. Red chili flakes can be used for heat, but can be omitted completely.
  9. Sesame Seeds – These add flavour and texture, but can be omitted as well if you don’t have any.

HOW TO MAKE 30 MINUTE GINGER BEEF

  1. Toss the steak with the corn starch in a large bowl and set aside.
  2. Over medium heat, add the vegetable oil and onions to a sauce pan. Sauté for two minutes until onions are translucent.
  3. Add the carrots to the onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender.
  4. Next, add the garlic, ginger, and chili flakes. Stir into the carrots and onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Lastly, add the soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, black pepper, brown sugar, and sesame seeds. Whisk together.
  6. Lower the heat to a simmer and allow the sauce to slightly thicken.
  7. In the meantime, bring about 2-3 cups of vegetable oil to optimum frying temperature in a deep skillet. Shake the excess corn starch off the beef and fry each piece in batches until crispy. This process takes about 3-4 minutes. Drain the fried beef on paper towels.
  8. Toss the fried beef with the sauce mixture. Garnish with green onions. Serve immediately.

LEFTOVERS – IF BY CHANCE YOU HAVE ANY LEFT!

Before we get to the recipe, there’s just one more thing I have to tell you about – freezing. When I first posted this recipe, I was the only meat-eater in our home. I would make a big batch of this beef and freeze it.

Here’s what you should do: Portion the completely cooled beef into food safe containers. Add 2 tablespoons of water to the container and place on the lid.  The water is important to prevent the beef from drying out during the re-heating stage.

Allow the beef to thaw at room temperature for 2-4 hours before you plan to reheat it. To reheat, simply remove the lid and transfer the contents to a skillet. Place a lid on the skillet, and over medium heat, allow the beef to heat up.  The water will steam the beef and keep it moist.  The beef should be fully re-heated and ready to eat in five minutes.

        While I have to agree the recipe looks positively delicious....I fail to see how it fits into the Ketogenic category at 53 grams of carohydrates.

          This recipe tastes perfect for me. You might try checking the sodium content on your soy sauce. Some low sodium sauces have more sodium than other brands regular sauces. Some of the regular sauces have your entire recommended daily value in just one tablespoon. The soy sauce I use has about 450 mg/tablespoon, for a reference. The one my mom uses has about 1500 mg/tablespoon. If I used hers in this recipe it would be gross.

      It won't water once you try it. Too salty and nothing in the recipe to offset the taste of a half cup of soy. It's disgusting. You may as we'll just eat Sat.

      Hi Autumn, the beef will be tender. Initially when you fry it, it will be crispy, but when you mix it with the sauce, it will lose the crispiness.

    OMG!! I just made this. Super delicious. My husband had second helpings. I only used 1 clove garlic. Doubled the ginger and doubled the chilli flakes. Beautiful!!! I left some beef tender and some beef extra crispy when frying my batches. This gave a phenomenal combination of soft and chewy textures and crispy crunch on the palette. Will definitely be making it again. Thanks for sharing!!

    I made this last night and it was REALLY good! Usually when I make a recipe, even for the first time, I mess around with it a bit, but I followed this recipe to the letter and it was great. Thanks! (OK, I did up the amount of ginger a bit, but that was because I minced it, didn’t grate it, and ended up with more than the recipe called for. I just discovered your site a few days ago, from my Pinterest feed- your 10 Most Popular Dishes Of 2017 post. If I may make a suggestion, you should give links to the recipe pages for those dishes from that page. At least on my iPad I didn’t see any, so had to search for them individually, which was time consuming. Links would have made it much easier.

      Hi Jennifer. :) If sesame is an issue, just leave them out completely. And just use another oil in place of sesame oil - maybe just extra virgin light olive oil. You can also thicken this with flour if you can't use cornstarch. Thank you!

    Made this tonight , it was a success . I had a little over a pound of beef however the ingredients produced a lot of sauce which we love to put over rice. It did however take me 40 minutes from start to finish ,which is still very good for dinner. I didn't use 2-3 cups of oil for frying as I thought it was too much. I still got a crispy finish to my beef . My only critique is that the ingredient list is not in the same order as the instructions. For example the beef is the first on the list and the cornstarch was third from the bottom, the chilli flakes are listed at the end but are added with the garlic and ginger which are at the top. I had to keep scrolling up and down for the amounts .( I am using an iPad ) Will definitely make this again.

    Sorry, but this is disgusting. Followed the recipe and it's just so salty. We had to throw the whole lot out. Dunno what country people are from who enjoyed this, but in Australia we enjoy flavour. There's nothing to offset the amount of soy in the recipe.

      Hi Ben, I'm sorry this dish didn't meet with your expectations. As you can see from the other comments, the dish has been very well received. The brown sugar and the natural sugar found in the two cups of carrots should have offset the salt level for you.

    Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe.. My partner and I both love it. I make it about 4 or 5 times a month. The only thing i do different is I put the beef in a bowl and sprinkle cornstarch over instead of using measured amount, I find it’s just a little faster because there is no excess cornstarch to shake off. Love it Love it Love it!!

    Great recipe and easy to follow. I added red capsicum (bell pepper) and green spring onions to the vegetables. Sweet chilli sauce and the zest and juice of two oranges to the liquids to give the sauce an added hint and extra bit of kick. I chose to serve the dish with a combination of Brown, Red and Wild Rice. Thanks for sharing

    Made this tonight almost exactly as the recipe states. The vinegar tended to grab you by the throat so I put in maybe a tablespoon more of brown sugar and it was perfect. Now, when I make it again, I will cut down on the amount of oil I use to saute the onions - it made the sauce a little greasy. Also, I will cut back on the carrots. Great taste but just to many - probably to 1 1/2 cups. I noticed someone complained about to much salt - I only use low sodium soy and there was no "salt lick" taste to it. Excellent recipe.

    You've got this expression backward: "The carrots can be substituted for red or green peppers." The carrots are substituted WITH or BY peppers. Or, alternately, the peppers are substituted FOR carrots. (There are a number of other typos and errors in your writing, but this one drives me batty. So many people make this mistake, and I don't understand why it's so hard for folks to grasp.)

        G'Day, I couldn't cook rice either, esp. not brown rice. However, I read that unless you live on rice, there is nothing wrong with white rice; so, I started cooking Basmati rice and find it never fails. It cooks in 8-10 min depending on quantity; then, let it sit 5 min. off the stove, fluff up. Perfect every time. Currently with the dreaded virus, rice-producing countries have stopped exporting rice which is understandable why we now have a rice shortage at the supermarket.

    It’s perfect as is, and I replied to the wrong person, but definitely be careful you use a low sodium soy sauce. As with all recipes, if you triple the salt content, it will turn out poorly. Sorry about that. It is a very good sauce.

    Wow really good my husband doesn't like food that doesn't have lots of gravy and he had a second serving so that my friend speaks for itself. I will definitely do it again . Thank you for that great recipe

    Made this yesterday - very, very good! It was my first time making ginger beef and I'm happy I found yours. Will be making it again.
