Ingredients For the beef: 2 thin frying beef steaks, cut into thin strips 2 tbsp plain flour 1 tbsp cornflour vegetable oil, for deep frying For the sauce: 1 orange, zest and juice only 1 tsp crushed dried chilli flakes 1 tbsp caster sugar
Method
1. Preheat a deep-fat fryer or one-third fill a large saucepan with vegetable oil and heat. To check if the oil is to the correct temperature, drop a small cube of bread into the oil. If the oil sizzles and the bread turns golden, the oil is ready to use. (NB. Hot oil is very dangerous. Do not leave unattended.) 2. Place all the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan and reduce for 3-4 minutes or until the sauce becomes syrupy. 3. In a bowl, mix the flour and cornflour. 4. Coat the beef in the flour mixture. 5. Deep-fry the beef for 2-4 minutes until cooked through and crispy. Serve the beef with the sauce poured over the top.
