Beef with ginger and spring onion (姜葱牛肉)


Beef with ginger and spring onion (姜葱牛肉)-  A very common dish on most Asian  dinning table.  A dish worth to record down for the benefit for the new wife or mother to cook for the family to enjoy.  

Most dishes that passed down from my late mother has no black and white record, but through memories,  and there is no fix amount of measurement of ingredients either by spoon or by weight, all are agak agak (estimate).  Whatever it is, with all the agak agak,  all dishes that my mom laid  on the dinning table are perfect and super delicious, even a simple fried egg or fish!  It's  the taste of Love!
