Instructions
- Combine soy sauce, water, brown sugar, ground pepper, and garlic in a bowl. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
- In a big bowl, toss together beef strips and cornstarch until all sides of the meat are fully covered.
- In a wok or saute pan, heat oil over high. Add in beef slices and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook so the beef remains tender. If the pan is too small, do this in two batches. Remove the beef from oil and set aside.
- In the same pan with oil, pour the liquid mixture and let it simmer for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce is reduced and becomes thicker.
- Add the pre-cooked beef and carrots and cook for another minute or two just to let the flavor seep in.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onion and serve with rice.
