"This Mongolian Beef tastes very close to PF's Chang. I usually make this when I want some of their Mongolian Beef but I am tight on money. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. It is a very quick and easy dish. Preparation time includes marinate time."

3 garlic cloves (thinly sliced)
1 stalk shredded scallion (white part only for garnishing)

directions

Marinate the beef slices with the seasonings for 30 minutes. Heat up a wok with 1 tablespoon of oil and stir-fry the marinated beef until they are half-done. Dish out and set aside.
Heat up another 1 tablespoon of oil and saute the garlic and ginger until aromatic. Add the beef back into the wok and then the sauce. Continue to stir-fry until the beef slices are almost done, then add the leeks into the wok. Do a few quick stirs, add salt and sugar to taste, dish out and garnish with the shredded scallions.
Serve hot.
