Steps:
- Slice beef thinly into 1"x2" pieces (if you do this while it is partially frozen, the pieces will be much thinner, and the process easier).
- In a bowl, combine ginger, sugar, soy sauce and garlic; add beef.
- Allow meat to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerated, for up to several hours.
- In a wok, heat the oil; drain beef, reserving marinade.
- Stir-fry beef over high heat until browned; add corn, green peppers, mushroom, onion, and Thai chilies, stir-frying for 1 minute.
- Add marinade and beef stock; reduce heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Meanwhile, stir the cornstarch mixture, oyster, and fish sauces together in a small bowl; stir them into the stir-fry, blending them in well, until mixture thickens.
- Serve stir-fry with hot steamed rice.
STIR-FRIED THAI-STYLE BEEF WITH CHILES AND SHALLOTS
The original recipe calls for blade steak, but we use flank steak. To cut a flank steak into the proper-sized slices for stir-frying, first cut the steak with the grain into 1 1/2-inch strips, then cut the strips against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. White pepper lends this stir-fry a unique flavor; black pepper is not a good substitute. I have also used green onions in place of the shallots with good results. We serve this with steamed jasmine rice, but any rice will do. Cooking time does not include marinating time. Adapted from Cooks Illustrated magazine, July 2005. Hope you enjoy!

THAI BEEF STIR-FRY
A distinctive peanut sauce complements this colorful combination of tender sirloin strips, cauliflower, carrots, broccoli and mushrooms. I like to dish it up over spaghetti, but you could use fried noodles instead. -Janice Fehr, Austin, Manitoba
