Gingered Flank Steak With Snow Peas

Directions

1. 1. Slice flank steak diagonally into thin strips about 1 inch wide and 2 inches long. In a small bowl mix water, cornstarch, sherry, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic till corn starch dissolves.
2. 2. In a large frying pan or possibly wok, heat 2 Tbsp. of the oil over high heat; in it brown beef strips quickly on both sides, about half at a time, removing them as soon as they brown.
3. 3. When all the beef is browned and removed from pan, add in remaining 1 Tbsp. oil. In it brown mushrooms lightly, stirring; fold in peas, stirring till bright green. Add in seasoned cornstarch liquid and cook, stirring, till thickened and clear. Return beef strips to pan and cook just till heated through. Serve immediately.
