Perhaps I am not a good reviewer for this as I have never tasted Mongolian Beef but I thought it was good. My husband thought the sauce tasted just like soya sauce. I may try it again with a few minor changes. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

This was great! We all really enjoyed it, including the kids and non-dieters. I used red bell peppers in place of carrots and otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Thanks for posting this keeper!

I made this because it had such high ratings. I added broccoli as I like veggies. I was rather disappointed. This is a rather bland dish.
