Steps:

• Freezing flank steak for 30 minutes will make it easier to slice. Trim the fat from the steak, slice at an angle into 1/8-inch slices.
• Mix all marinade ingredients together. Mix with sliced meat and refrigerate for 1/2 hour or as along as all day.
• Dissolve the cornstarch in the stock and then add the other sauce ingredients. Set aside.
• Heat 2 cups oil in wok or other deep skillet to 350°F Drain beef and fry in oil until almost done (until it loses its pink color). Drain beef in colander. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of oil from wok. (To be honest, I don't deep-fry the beef - I just saute it in a bit of oil).
• Over high heat, add the garlic, ginger and scallions. Stir for about 15 seconds.
• Add the mixed sauce ingredients and stir for about 15 seconds until hot.
• Add meat and stir for a few seconds until reheated.
