Ingredients

1 1/2 lb. family steak, thinly sliced, small chunks (works well to freeze it & then cut while partially thawed)

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 tsp. ground ginger

1 bunch green onions, about 8

2 tbsp. cornstarch

2 tbsp. water

1 can water chestnuts, drained, sliced

1 can bamboo shoots, drained

1 can bean sprouts, drained

7 oz. Chinese pea pods, partially thawed, frozen

Preparation

Combine steak in crockpot with consomme, soy sauce, ginger and onion.

Cover and cook on low for 5 to 7 hours.

Turn control to high.

Stir in cornstarch that has been dissolved in the 2 tbsp. cold water.

Cook on high for 15 minutes or until thickened.

During last 5 minutes of cooking, add water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts and pea pods.
