Spicy Beef (based on a Mongolian beef recipe)

Fry vegetables (shredded carrots, green onions, and/or brocolli - as the mood strikes) and the following spices in 2 T oil:
1/2 t ginger
1 T garlic powder
1 T onion powder
1 t red pepper flakes.
Remove from pan.  Brown
1 lb beef, cut in strips,
in 2 T oil.  When brown, add 1/4 c flour (or cornstarch) to coat beef.  Fry just enough to brown flour.
Add back veg/spice mixture.  Add:
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c brown sugar
1/4 c water
1/4 c orange juice (or SunnyD).  (The juice is my secret ingredient.)
Simmer until sauce thickens.  Serve over rice.
