Preparation Steps

Begin by slicing the flank steak against the grain into thin strips, about ¼ inch thick.
Add grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil to the bowl with the flank steak.
Carefully pour the steak mixture into your slow cooker, ensuring it’s spread evenly.
Cover the slow cooker and let the beef slow cook without opening the lid.
About 30 minutes before serving, mix cornstarch with a small amount of water to create a slurry.
Once thickened, carefully spoon the tender beef onto plates, garnishing with sliced green onions.
