Ginger Bison
Ingredients
- 1 lb 1 lb blade or minute preferred bison steak
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/2 cup water
- canola oil
- 2/3 cups grated carrots
- 2 tbsp chopped green onion
- 4 tbsp chopped ginger root
- 4 cloves cloves garlic minced
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp vinegar
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
Bison:
- Thinly slice the steak and mix well with eggs. Dissolve cornstarch in water and mix with the meat.
- Pour enough oil into a large frying pan about an inch deep. Heat until the oil sizzles when you drop a piece of meat into it. Once it's good and hot add the bison meat to the oil in batches as to not crowd. Separate with a fork, flip and cook until crispy. Remove from oil and place on paper towel in a bowl. Set aside
Sauce:
- Using the same pan, drain all but 1 Tbsp of the oil. Add the carrots, ginger, green onion, garlic and saute on high for 3 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Add to cooked bison, mix and serve over rice. Enjoy!
Notes
I've made this a couple of times this summer and it is a real crowd-pleaser. It's not too difficult but if you're making a double or triple batch for a larger group you'll need a bit of time.
This recipe will take you about half an hour and will feed 4 people, depending on their appetites ;).
