1/2 kg beef (boneless)
1 large onion (sliced)
1/2 coloured capsicum (cut each color lengthwise)
5-6 cloves garlic (roughly chopped)
1" ginger (roughly chopped)
2-3 green chillies (slit into quarters)
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp red chilli sauce
1 tbsp green chilli sauce
1 tbsp sriracha sauce
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
1 tsp tomato ketchup
salt to taste
spring onions (to garnish)

For The Marinade
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp ginger garlic paste
1/2 tsp Kashmiri chilli powder
1 tbsp vinegar
1 tbsp oil
1 egg
3 tbsp cornflour
1/2 tsp salt
Marinate The Strips Of Beef For 24 Hours In The Refrigerator

Add Egg, Cornflour And Fry Till Cooked Completely

Steps:

  1. Cut the meat into thin strips. Wash and drain well. Transfer to a bowl and add the ingredients for the marinade except the egg and cornflour. Combine well and marinate for 24 hours in the refrigerator. This will tenderise the meat and help it cook faster.
  2. Add the egg and cornflour to the marinated beef just before you want to fry it.

  3. In a wok, heat sufficient oil and fry the meat in batches till completely cooked. This should take 8-10 minutes. Make sure not to fry it too crisp. Set aside.

  4. Then, heat 3 tbsp oil and fry the green chillies, ginger and garlic till aromatic.
  5. Add in the onions and fry till translucent.
  6. Next add in the capsicum and fry for about a minute or two.
  7. Add the fried meat and sauces. Mix well.
  8. Pour in about 1/4 cup of water and bring to a boil. Continue to cook till the sauce has thickened.
  9. Check for seasoning. Add salt and vinegar if required.
  10. Garnish with chopped spring onions.
  11. ENJOY!
