How To make Northern Beef
1 lb Beef (flank, rump,
-sirloin), sliced 1/2 by 2 -by 3 inch strips 2 c Chinese chard (bok choy),
-cut in 1 1/2 inch squares 1 sm Onion, halved and cut into
-1 1/2 inch squares 1 Clove garlic, minced
A few gratings of ginger 2 tb Oil for frying
GRAVY:
1/2 tb Honey
1 tb Sherry wine
1 tb Soy sauce
1 tb Soy beans with chili
-condiment * 1/2 c Water
1/2 tb Cornstarch
ds MSG (optional) ds 5-spices (optional) ds Salt *(or if unavailable, substitute 5 or 6 drops Tabasco sauce) Been returning to my culinary "roots" so to speak. I pulled out a couple of great little cookbooks that I got years ago when I was first getting into Oriental cooking. These are those little recipe card like books with spiral bindings that you see here and there in Asian markets and the like. I'd forgotten how good these recipes are since collecting larger and flashier cookbooks, but these are some of the recipes that convinced me that I really did want to become proficient at Chinese cooking. They are simple, authentic and *very* tasty! This first one calls for beef, but the other night I substituted pork for the beef and the result was excellent. The finished dish is rich, as hot as you like it and slightly sweet. The only "exotic" ingredient is the "soy beans with chili condiment" and it's not too exotic these days. (Sorry, Jeff++no dried duck webs here!) Any market with a good Oriental section should have it. The stuff I use is put out in 8 oz. bottles by Lan Chi and is called "Chilli Paste with Soy Bean". It's quite hot and has a wonderful, slightly "smoky" flavor. (I'm copying these recipes out verbatim to capture the flavor of the book.) This blend of flavors will remind you of hot dishes from other parts of the world. This chili flavor combine [sic] is entirely different from the chili used in Mexican dishes, for instance 1. Mix gravy ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
2. Heat wok on high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Slosh around. Add
vegetables and stir-fry until half done about 2 minutes. Remove to platter. 3. Clean wok. Reheat over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Slosh
around. Add beef, garlic and ginger. Toss-fry for about 3 minutes and when meat is pinkish add gravy ingredients. Stir-fry another minute or so until thickened. Add precooked vegetables. Toss-fry another minute to blend and heat through. From "Quick and Easy Gourmet Wok Cooking" by Kay Shimizu. Shufunotomo Co. Ltd., Tokyo. 1973.

Free printable crispy chilli beef recipe on our site:
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.
