Beef with Onions

This one I adapted from a little book on Chinese food. The original recipe had green peppers.

Ingredients:

4 tablespoons oil
1-inch piece gingerroot, peeled and chopped
1 lb beef tenderloin, very thinly sliced
1 onion, sliced
salt, if necessary

Sauce:

1/4 cup vegetable stock
1 tablespoon soy sauce (better if using dark soy sauce)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixture (prepare with 1 part cornstarch, 2 parts of water)

Preparation:

In a wok, heat oil, add gingerroot and fry for 1 minute. Add beef and quickly stir-fry for 2 minutes just until color changes.Stir in onion and stir-fry for 5 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix together sauce ingredients. Stir into beef mixture. Cook, stirring, until lightly thickened. Add salt if needed.
Serve with white rice.
