How to make delicious, crispy, and spicy Sichuan beef

Step 1 : The process begins by heating a generous amount of oil in a skillet.

Step 2 : Meanwhile, the strips of beef are cut into thin slices using scissors, making them easier to handle and more precise.

Step 3 : These strips are placed on a plate and dipped into a prepared mixture of beaten egg, salt, and cornstarch, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.

Step 4 : When the oil reaches the right temperature, the beef strips are fried in small batches to prevent sticking or overcrowding, cooking for about five minutes or until they turn golden and become crispy.

Step 5 : Once fried, they are removed and placed on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 6 : While the meat is frying, prepare the vegetable base.

Step 7 : Green onion is cut into green and white parts, and these are cooked in a skillet with a bit of oil over medium-high heat for a few minutes.

Step 8 : Next, add the shredded carrot and sliced garlic, letting everything cook together for a few more minutes.

Step 9 : For those who like a bit of heat, sliced chili peppers can be added at this stage.

Step 10 : In a separate bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing honey, vinegar, soy sauce, and sweet chili sauce.

Step 11 : Mix well until a smooth sauce is achieved, and if desired, lightly warm it to blend the flavors better.

Step 12 : Finally, add the fried beef to the vegetables in the skillet, stir to combine all ingredients and let flavors meld.

Step 13 : Serve immediately to enjoy the crispy texture and well-balanced flavors.
