12 Radishes
2 tablespoons Oil
1½ tablespoon Sugar
2 tablespoons Vinegar (up to)

1. Slice beef thin against the grain. Combine cornstarch and soy sauce. Add to beef and toss to coat. Slice (but do not peel) radishes.

2. Heat oil. Add beef and stir-fry until it loses its redness. Remove from pan.

3. Add to pan sugar, vinegar and water, and heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Then return beef and stir-fry about 2 minutes more.
