Instructions
- Marinate and velvetize sliced beef as instructed below.
- Heat a pan or wok at high heat; add oil then onions, celery, red and green bell peppers let sear about 30 seconds before stirring. Add Garlic-ginger infusion and sauté 30 seconds.

- Remove and place on plate and garnish with crunchy chow mein noodles.
- To marinate: For 10 lbs. sliced or diced meat, dissolve 0.4 lb. (7/8 C.) Marinade Seasoning (Gluten Free Starport 356) with 1-1/4 C. water and 1 C. oil.
- Mix well then add meat and marinate for 30 minutes or more. May be covered in a container and refrigerate overnight.
- To velvetize: Oil blanch meat in deep fryer at 350 F in 2-pound batches for 60-80 seconds, un-clump the meat pieces, remove and drain off oil. (Oil blanching seals the juice in the sliced meat surfaces and can be quickly reheated in the wok or griddle make cook-to-order fast.)
- When cool, place in covered container and refrigerate, use as needed. Make batch daily.
- Mince and mix 2 parts of garlic with one part of ginger by weight.
- Place mixture in a pot and add enough vegetable oil to cover the garlic and ginger.
- Heat mixture at low heat until boil for about three minutes, place in a close container and refrigerate when cool.
