Recipes from Grandma

I haven’t had a chance to try this recipe yet, but it sure sounds good!

1 to 1-1/4 pounds boneless top round, about 1 inch think
1 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon finely chopped ginger
1 clove garlic, crushed,
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup cold water
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions

Preheat broiler to high.

In small saucepan, combine soy sauce, sugar, ginger, and garlic. Stir until sugar is dissolved.

Remove 1/2 cup of sauce for basting.

Place steak on rack of broiler pan. Brush generously with sauce.

Broil 4 inches from heat for 10 minutes. Turn and brush with remaining sauce. Broil an additional 5 to 6 minutes or until desired doneness.

Note: If you like your steak rare, monitor the amount of time you are broiling. You probably don’t want to broil it for this long!

Mix cornstarch with water. Add to mixture in saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.

Let steak stand for 2 minutes. Slice diagonally across grain. Stir scallions into sauce. Serve with steak.
