Sichuan La Jiao Niurou (Szechwan stir-fry beef with hot pepper)

 


                It is a relatively uncomplicated and quick form of cooking, unlike many of the more elaborate Chinese methods, and thereforeit is believed to have been used by field-workers who needed quick hot food to complement the rice brought from home. There are many stir-fry recipes from Szechwan, a province known for its spicy cuisine.

                It is easier to cut the meat if it is partially frozen. Make sure you use a very sharp knife.

Serves 6 

  • 1 kg rump steak, well trimmed of fat
  • 250 ml peanut oil
  • 10 large dried red chilies
  • 45 ml dark soy sauce
  • 30 ml Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
  • 5-10 ml sugar, to taste
  • 2 carrots, cut into julienne strips
  • 3 celery stalks, cut into julienne strips
  • 4 fresh long red chilies, cut into fine shreds
  1. Cut the meat into very thin slices, then cut these into very fine shreds.
  2. Heat the oil in a wok and stir-fry the meat over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, or until quite dry and crispy ; drain on paper towels.
  3. Pour off all but 30 ml of the oil from the wok and stir-fry the dried chilies for 1 to 2 minutes ; remove and discard the chilies.
  4. Mix together the soy sauce, rice wine and sugar ; add soy sauce mixture and the meat to the wok and stir-fry for 5 minutes.
  5. Add the remaining ingredients and cook for 4 minutes, or until the vegetables are just tender.
