Squeeze garlic & ginger root through garlic press into soy sauce. Add sugar. Dissolve cornstarch in cold water. Heat oil 1 or 2 minutes in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add meat slices & stir quickly until meat starts to lose color, about 2 minutes. Add soy sauce mixture & stir well. Add stock. When liquid comes to boil, add cornstarch mixture. Stir constantly until it boils again & sauce is thickened. Serve immediately over rice. Makes 4 servings.
