Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces lean flank steak, trimmed
1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce, divided
1 teaspoon dry sherry plus 1 Tbsp., divided
1 teaspoon vegetable oil plus 1 Tbsp., divided
4 teaspoons hoisin sauce
4 teaspoons ketchup
1-3 teaspoons chile-garlic sauce or Sriracha
3 slices peeled ginger, smashed
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 cup diced green bell pepper (1-inch)
1 cup diced red bell pepper (1-inch)
2 tablespoons unsalted beef broth

Steps:

  • Cut beef with the grain into 2-inch-wide strips. Cut each strip across the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Combine the beef, cornstarch, 1½ tsp. soy sauce, and 1 tsp. sherry in a medium bowl; stir until the cornstarch is no longer visible. Add 1 tsp. oil and stir until the beef is lightly coated.
  • Combine hoisin sauce, ketchup, chile-garlic sauce (or Sriracha) to taste, and the remaining 1½ tsp. soy sauce and 1 Tbsp. sherry in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed carbon-steel wok (or a 12-inch stainless-steel skillet) over high heat until a drop of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl in the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil. Add ginger and stir-fry until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Push the ginger to the sides of the pan and add the beef in an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until the beef begins to brown, about 1 minute. Add onion and, using a metal spatula, stir-fry until the beef is lightly browned but not cooked through, 30 seconds to 1 minute more. Transfer the beef and onion mixture to a plate.
  • Add green and red peppers and broth to the pan. Cover and cook over high heat until the peppers are bright green and red and almost all the liquid has been absorbed, about 1 minute. Return the beef and onion and any accumulated juices to the pan. Add the reserved sauce and stir-fry until the beef is just cooked through and the peppers are tender-crisp, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove the ginger, if desired.

ORANGE BEEF



Orange Beef image

A classic from Hunan, chun pei ngau yuk translates as "old beef," very old, or as we say in China, so old it gathers dust. The main reason for this is that this dish is most often cooked with old, dried, hard orange peel, and it is fine that way. I prefer fresh orange peel.

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 pound thick flank steak, weighed after trimming, cut into strips 2 1/2 inches by 1/4 inch
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon egg white, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon Shao-Hsing wine or dry sherry
Pinch freshly ground white pepper
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon Chinese white rice vinegar or distilled vinegar
2 tablespoons Chicken Stock
Pinch freshly ground white pepper
3 1/2 cups peanut oil, to deep-fry the beef
5 small dried chilies
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 fresh Thai chili, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons 1/2- by 1/8-inch pieces fresh orange peel, most of pith removed
2 scallions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch sections
6 slices fresh orange

Steps:

  • Marinate the beef with baking soda in the refrigerator for 8 hours or, preferably, overnight. After marinating, wash thoroughly, twice, with cold water. Drain and dry with paper towels. Place the beef in a bowl, add the egg white, and mix well until the beef is coated. Add the wine, white pepper, 1 tablespoon peanut oil, and cornstarch, mixing with your hand each time and ingredient is added. Allow to rest for 1 hour, refrigerated. There should be no residue.
  • In a bowl, combine the sauce ingredients and set aside.
  • Heat a wok over high heat for 1 minute. Add the 3 1/2 cups peanut oil and heat to 400 degrees F. Place the beef strips, one at a time, in the oil and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, loosening the beef with a spatula. Remove with a strainer and drain. Heat the oil again to 425 degrees F. Place the beef strips again in the oil and cook for 2 minutes, until the beef becomes crisp. Remove and allow to drain.
  • Drain off all but 1 tablespoon oil from the wok and heat over high heat for 20 seconds. Add the dried chilies, stir, and cook until darkened. Add the ginger and garlic and stir briefly. Add the fresh chili and orange peel and stir briefly. Add the scallions, and mix well. Add the beef and cook, stirring, for 45 seconds. Make a well in the center of the mixture, stir the sauce mixture, and pour in. Mix well until the sauce is absorbed and the beef acquires a shiny coating. Remove to a serving dish and serve, garnished with the orange slices.
