- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the onions and grated ginger, and sauté until the onion becomes soft. Add the beef and the sauce to the skillet, stirring to combine well. Stir the beef and onion a few times, then turn off the heat.

Notes
- By scalding the beef with hot boiling water, the beef is clean with no white foamy bits. You will notice that the water will turn brownish with residue in the water. If you can’t find thinly sliced beef, buy the ribeye, freeze it and slice with very sharp knife. The key is to slice the beef really thin.
