Delicious and quick to prepare. I serve this with steamed jasmine rice for a nice after-work dinner. Adapted from bon appetit

Combine beef and cornstarch in a large bowl.

Using your hands , rub to coat well.

Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat.

Working in batches , add beef in a single layer and cook , undisturbed , until meat begins to blacken on the bottom , about 1 1 / 2 minutes.
