Slice the beef across the grain into thin strips. Add the marinade ingredients in the order given and marinate the beef for thirty minutes. To prepare the vegetables, wash the green onions and slice on the diagonal into 1-inch pieces. Peel and mince the garlic. Rinse the can of baby corn with warm running water. Drain thoroughly. Mix together the sauce ingredients and set aside.

When the beef has finished marinating, heat the wok and add 1 cup oil. When oil is ready, add the beef and fry until it changes color. Remove the beef from the wok and drain on paper towels.

Clean out the wok with a paper towel, and add 2 tablespoons of oil for stir-frying. When the oil is ready, add the garlic. Stir-fry briefly, and add the baby corn. Add the green onions.

it depends are you looking for authentic asian food or fast food? since there is a difference. If you want authentic asian recipes try some Japanese recipes "Katsu-don" is a personal favorite http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katsudon also "Bahn - mi" is a vatenamese sandwitch that is exremely flavorful and simple to make! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/saras鈥?/a> Vinager is a key ingredient for this recipe. I prefer using pork shoulder for this recipe it is very tender. make sure you use a baquette for the bread toasted with mayo and lots of cilantro and cucumber.enjoy and good luck (:What are some good Asian/Chinese recipes?
