Ingredients:
1 pound bitter melon
8 ounces flank steak
6 slices ginger, shredded
1 scallion, minced
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 Tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoons dry sherry
3 Tablespoons canola or corn oil
2 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with two teaspoons cold water
Preparation:
1. Prepare the bitter melon by cutting it in half length-wise. Discard seeds and pulp. Then cut it into one-inch thick pieces. Parboil them in boiling water for one or two minutes, and drain.
2. Cut beef steak with the grain into two-inch strips. Slice the strips across the grain into half-inch thick pieces.
3. Mix the steak with ginger, scallions, soy sauce, sugar, oyster sauce, and sherry.
4. Heat oil, add garlic and stir-fry for ten to twenty seconds. Add beef mixture and stir-fry for one minute before adding the bitter melon mixture. Stirfry this for two minutes, then add the corn starch mixture and cook until the sauce thickens. Then serve.
