SPICY ORANGE BEEF
When I first started out cooking, I did a lot of stir-frying. Although my menu has expanded, I still enjoy cooking and eating stir-fries. Oranges, ginger and pepper flakes give this dish a very distinctive flavor.

Tips
- **Mise en Place:** Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your dish comes together quickly and easily. - **Use a Wok:** A wok is the traditional cooking vessel for this dish, but you can also use a large skillet or sauté pan. Just make sure that it's large enough to accommodate all of your ingredients. - **Don't Overcook the Beef:** The beef should be cooked just until it's browned and tender. Overcooking will make it tough and chewy. - **Use Fresh Vegetables:** Fresh vegetables will give you the best flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can use frozen vegetables, but make sure to thaw them before using. - **Adjust the Spice Level:** The amount of chili sauce and Sriracha sauce you use will determine the spice level of the dish. If you like it spicy, add more; if you prefer a milder dish, use less.Conclusion
