  • Crispy chili beef is my favourite dish from the Chinese takeaway, so it has a lot to live up to. I'm going to show you how to get that lovely craggy exterior and even better, we don't need to use the deep fryer! Perfect crispy strips of beef in a tangy spicy sauce, mmmm soo good!
    Free printable crispy chilli beef recipe on our site: www.kitchensanctuary.com/cris...
    Ingredients:
    • ¾ lb (360g) thin cut sirloin steaks - (approx 3 steaks) cut into thin strips*
    • 1 small egg
    • 4 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch)
    • ¼ tsp salt
    • ¼ tsp black pepper
    • 1/8 tsp white pepper
    • 4 ½ tbsp sunflower oil, divided
    • 1 medium onion, sliced into thin strips
    • 1 red chilli - finely sliced- discard the seeds if you don't like it too hot
    • 1 tsp minced ginger
    • 3 garlic cloves - peeled and minced
    • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
    • 3 tbsp dark soy sauce
    • 2 tbsp tomato puree
    • 6 tbsp caster (superfine) sugar
    • 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
    • 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
    Process:
    • Place the steak strips in a bowl and add the egg. Mix together to thoroughly coat the steak in the egg.
    • Add the 4tbsp cornflour, ¼ tsp each of salt and pepper and 1/8 tsp of white pepper.
    • Toss together to coat the steak. It will be a sticky mixture.
    • Heat 3 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan (skillet) or wok over a high heat until very hot.
    • When the oil is hot, add the beef in a strip at a time and spread it out. You will probably need to work in 2 batches.
    • Fry the steak until dark brown and crispy. Try not to move the meat around too much as this reduces the amount of crispiness you get. It generally takes about 5 or 6 minutes to crisp up the beef, with about 3 or 4 stirs during that time.
    • Using a slotted spoon, remove the beef from the pan and place it in a bowl lined with kitchen roll to soak up excess fat.
    • Add a further tablespoon of oil and repeat - cooking the second batch of beef and then placing in the bowl with the first batch.
    • Once you’ve removed all the beef from the pan, Its time to make the crispy chilli beef sauce, add the remaining ½ tbsp of oil to the pan and turn the heat down to medium.
    • Add in the sliced onion and cook for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
    • Add in the finely chopped chilli, 1 tsp minced ginger and 3 minced cloves of garlic and cook whilst stirring for 30 seconds.
    • Add the 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 3tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp tomato puree, 6 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp tomato ketchup and the 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce to the pan. Turn up the heat and let it bubble for a couple of minutes until the sauce starts to reduce a little.
    • Add the beef back in, give it a stir and heat through for 1-2 minutes - until the beef is hot.
    • Serve with Egg fried rice, boiled rice or noodles.

    When I was a trainee chef in London back in 1964 we had a sandwich if we were on early shift. It was a MR fore rib of beef joint, the eye of the joint was cut into thin steaks and placed on a tray then covered with 50% butter & 50% Worcestershire sauce and put in the oven to warm. Doorsteps of bread were lightly toasted and the beef went in the middle of two slices, best sandwich I have ever had :-))

I added Rosemary as well and browned the lamb in flour and added a spoon later too. I then promptly shared your recipe after we had immense success with my kids. I'm from Wigan and my kids had never had a traditional dish from my neck of the woods. So now it' a firm fave. Planning on the Biryani this week.

    I've been cooking 40+ years at home and professionally, and generally loathe most YT "chefs" (term is debatable). But YOU I like. You're not trying to be cutesy, shocking or funny - or engage people emotionally. You are brief, concise & recipes are exactly to my taste. I'm a big fan, & wish you every success. Edit: Thank you for not forcing me to another website to view a written recipe. Often on YT it is evident that viewers are being heavily manipulated and when I am enjoying myself at home, that turns me right off. Kitchen sanctuary is right.

    Super delicious! The only improvement I’d make for that takeaway taste is to add a pinch or two of MSG to really give the beef that umami kick! Thanks again for the video, fabulous content!

    Looks great. In Australia I’ve found it called different names in different restaurants. “Crispy shredded steak”, “Rainbow steak”, “Shanghai Beef” … and I don’t get around much, so there could be a lot more. Definitely worth asking for if you don’t see it on the menu.

      It's called Kim Wah Beef here in Benalla, Vic 😁 I remember the best beef used to be in the all you can eat Chinese restaurant in the Pancake Palour Plaza in Bourke St mall. The beef was bright red, so crispy and layered on fried rice noodles. So good!
      Looking forward to making this, thanks for the fantastic content 😃

It went down a treat for the whole family. I was asked to make it again tonight so I did and this time I used Gammon steaks and trust me... the gammon is on another fucking level. Boss recipe. Keep up the great work 👍

  • @abuhamza1970
    @abuhamza1970 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Missed a couple of tricks here:
    1. Cut the steak across the grain NOT with the grain, this makes it easier to chew.
    2. Cut the beef strips in half lengthwise to increase the surface area and make more quantity.
    3. Give the beef strips a whack with your Chinese chefs knife to tenderise the meat. This will actually melt the meat but make the coating crispier.
    4. Mix the sauce ingredients separately in a saucepan and gently bring them to a simmer while the veg is cooking. This allows the ingredients to fuse together and create a more cohesive sauce than just bunging everything together at the same time.
    Hope this helps, enjoy 😁

    I cooked this today and did enjoy it but it was extremely sweet. Of course that is why a lot of people like it and it would be very sweet in a restaurant but I think I will probably halve the sugar next time and see if that makes it more to my taste. But it is a good recipe and video. Thanks.

    • @xRatchetJRx
      @xRatchetJRx Před 2 lety

      She should use brown sugar not white sugar as brown gives you the crispy texture, I’ll defiantly give this a go, the sauce looks lovely just I’d change the sugar for a more crispy taste, that’s why it’s probably so sweet for you… over doing it
