Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin
- 100 grams Cornstarch
- 500 ml Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 3 units Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Red chili flakes
- 2 units Scallions
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide.
Pat the beef strips dry with paper towels and toss them in the cornstarch until evenly coated. Shake off any excess cornstarch.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F).
Deep-fry the beef strips in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried beef to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes to make the sauce.
Remove excess oil from the wok, leaving about 1 tablespoon of oil, and reduce the heat to medium.
Pour the prepared sauce into the wok and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add the crispy fried beef to the sauce and toss well to coat all the pieces evenly.
Slice the scallions thinly and sprinkle them over the beef along with the sesame seeds.
Serve the crisp beef immediately as is or with steamed rice for a complete meal.
