1/3 cup water
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons peanut oil

Add water in the cornstarch and mix it thoroughly. It should not have any lumps, stir in sherry and sauce in the cornstarch mixture. In the wok add 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. To this, add the garlic and beef strips and then stir fry it for some time. Remove this mixture from the wok and keep it aside. To the wok, add the remaining oil and cook the vegetables for couple of minutes and stir in between. Put in the beef strips mixture and add cornstarch so that the mixture boils and thickens slightly.
