Low Fat Mongolian Beef - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
    1 tablespoon fresh garlic
    1/2 cup soy sauce
    1/2 cup water
    3/4 cup brown sugar, do not pack
    3/4 lb flank steak
    1/4 cup cornstarch
    1 bunch green onion, cut in 1 1/2 in strips
    cooked rice
Preparation
    Slice the flank steak against the grain and toss in 1/4 cup of cornstarch. (I use a large zip loc bag)
    Make sauce: Heat 1/2 tsp olive oil, add ginger and garlic. Cook but don't burn. Add the soy sauce, water and brown sugar - bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and place sauce in a separate bowl.
    Add 1 tsp oil and brown beef (if the beef seems oily you might want to take it out of the skillet and let drain on a paper towel)
    Add sauce, green onions and cook through
    Serve with rice.
