Chile Beef Stir Fry Recipes

CRISPY CHILLI BEEF

Steps:

• Put 350g thin-cut minute steak strips in a bowl and toss in 3 tbsp cornflour and 2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder.
• Heat 100ml vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan until hot, then add the beef and fry until golden and crisp.
• Scoop out the beef and drain on kitchen paper. Pour away all but 1 tbsp oil.
• Add 1 thinly sliced red pepper, ½ thinly sliced red chilli, sliced white ends of 4 spring onions, 2 crushed garlic cloves and thumb-sized piece ginger, cut into matchsticks, to the pan. Stir-fry for 3 mins to soften, but don't let the garlic and ginger burn.
• Mix the 4 tbsp rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce and 2 tbsp tomato ketchup in a jug with 2 tbsp water, then pour over the veg.
• Bubble for 2 mins, then add the beef back to the pan and toss well to coat.
• Serve the beef on noodles with prawn crackers, if you like, scattered with the remaining ½ sliced red chilli and sliced green parts of the spring onions.

THAI STIR-FRIED CHILE BEEF

Steps:

• Slice beef thinly into 1"x2" pieces (if you do this while it is partially frozen, the pieces will be much thinner, and the process easier).
• In a bowl, combine ginger, sugar, soy sauce and garlic; add beef.
• Allow meat to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerated, for up to several hours.
• In a wok, heat the oil; drain beef, reserving marinade.
• Stir-fry beef over high heat until browned; add corn, green peppers, mushroom, onion, and Thai chilies, stir-frying for 1 minute.
• Add marinade and beef stock; reduce heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Meanwhile, stir the cornstarch mixture, oyster, and fish sauces together in a small bowl; stir them into the stir-fry, blending them in well, until mixture thickens.
• Serve stir-fry with hot steamed rice.

CHILI BEEF STIR-FRY WITH SCALLIONS AND SNOW PEAS

Steps:

• Whisk the chili-garlic sauce, soy sauce, mirin, honey, sesame oil, and cornstarch together in a small bowl and set aside. Cut the beef lengthwise along the grain into 3 or 4 (2-inch) wide pieces. Slice each piece of beef across the grain into paper thin pieces, about 1/8-inch thick. Pat the beef dry and season well with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over high heat just until smoking. Add the beef and cook, stirring rarely, until well browned, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
• Return the skillet to the stove over medium-low heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, half of the scallions, the garlic, and the ginger, and cook until just fragrant and starting to color, about 30 seconds. Stir in the snow peas, and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the chili-garlic sauce mixture, then remove the pan from the heat, and add the beef and accumulated juices. Toss to coat and transfer to a serving platter. Serve immediately sprinkled with remaining scallions.
