Wednesday, November 23, 2005 Chinese Beef and Pea Pods (Crockpot)


1 (1 to 1 1/2 pound) Flank Steak
1 (10 1/2 oz) can beef consomme'
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 tsp. Ground ginger
1 bunch green onions, sliced
2 tbs. Cornstarch
2 tbs. Cold water
1 (7oz) package frozen Chinese peas partially thawed, or fresh ones

1. Thinly slice flank steak diagonally across the grain

2. Combine strips in crock-pot with consomme, soy sauce, ginger and onions

3. Cover and cook on low for 5 -7 hours

4. Turn crock-pot to high, stir in cornstarch that has been dissolved in the cold water. Cook on high for 10 minutes.

5. Drop in pea pods the last 5 minutes, longer if using fresh peas

Serve over hot rice

* I also add mushrooms and bean sprouts in and use low sodium soy sauce and consomme as I found the original recipe too salty for my taste.*
