Ingredients

  • 500 g beef (cut into strips)
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili sauce (optional)
  • Chopped spring onions (for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Beef

Slice the beef into thin strips, ensuring that they are of even thickness for uniform cooking.

Step 2: Make the Batter

In a bowl, combine the cornstarch, flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually add cold water, mixing until you have a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the beef but not too thick that it becomes clumpy.

Step 3: Coat the Beef

Dip each beef strip into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Shake off any excess batter.

Step 4: Fry the Beef

Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully drop in the beef strips, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 5: Prepare the Sauce (Optional)

In a small pan, mix soy sauce and chili sauce (if using), then simmer for 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

Place the crispy beef strips on a serving plate, drizzle with the prepared sauce (if desired), and garnish with chopped spring onions. Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles.

FAQs

Can I use chicken instead of beef?

Yes, chicken breast or thigh strips can be used instead of beef for a lighter option. The cooking method remains the same.

Can I prepare the beef ahead of time?

While the batter can be prepared in advance, it’s best to fry the beef right before serving to maintain its crispy texture. However, you can also store the cooked beef in the refrigerator and reheat it in a hot pan before serving.

How can I make the crispy beef spicier?

To make the beef spicier, increase the amount of chili sauce or add fresh chopped green chilies to the batter or sauce. Adjust the heat level to your preference.

Can I skip the sauce?

Yes, the crispy beef can be enjoyed on its own without the sauce, or you can pair it with a simple dipping sauce like sweet chili or soy sauce.

What is the best way to serve crispy beef?

Crispy beef pairs well with steamed rice, stir-fried vegetables, or as a side dish with noodles. It can also be served as an appetizer for gatherings or parties.
