nice...i would actually mixed the beef with the corn starch so, i can by pass the slurry sauce and also ensure beef is tender...
ReplyDeleteI had know idea corn starch helps make beef tender. Thanks for the great tip. :)
ReplyDeletett, not only cornstarch makes beef tender, it also makes pork and chicken tender. Cornstarch is my meat & poultry tenderizer. :)
