- Опубліковано 28 лют 2021
- Crispy chili beef is my favourite dish from the Chinese takeaway, so it has a lot to live up to. I'm going to show you how to get that lovely craggy exterior and even better, we don't need to use the deep fryer! Perfect crispy strips of beef in a tangy spicy sauce, mmmm soo good!
Free printable crispy chilli beef recipe on our site: www.kitchensanctuary.com/cris...
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.

What's your favourite takeaway dish? I'd love to know!
Kebabs, the sort you get after a night out and it's 3am in the morning. Got to have the hot sauce on it too!
Can’t go wrong with curry chicken!
Chinese chicken curry with egg fried rice xx Filey in North Yorkshire has a takeaway that really does that dish brilliantly ...
My husband complements your recipes. I make a new meal and he is excited when I say the is from the UA-camr KS. Thank you.
A rich and creamy Gorgonzola pasta. I’d love a really nice recipe for it :))
When I was a trainee chef in London back in 1964 we had a sandwich if we were on early shift. It was a MR fore rib of beef joint, the eye of the joint was cut into thin steaks and placed on a tray then covered with 50% butter & 50% Worcestershire sauce and put in the oven to warm. Doorsteps of bread were lightly toasted and the beef went in the middle of two slices, best sandwich I have ever had :-))
Was the butter and Worcestershire sauce Cooked down and reduced ?
@@dbsolo don’t think so, Worcestershire sauce is strong enough without reducing it 👨🍳
That sounds bloody handsome! Have you attempted to recreate it since? Love a fore rib, but we only ever have it for Christmas and Easter, it’s so dear! I wonder if you might get anywhere close with a bit of cooked and sliced ribeye steak?
@@jackclements8135 works well with leftovers roasted leg of lamb too.
I’ve cooked 3 of your recipes now and they have all come out pretty well and this one I’m going to try tomorrow. I’m a 64 year old guy whose decided to now start cooking and I must say your videos are inspiring. Mmmmm crispy chilli beef, I can almost taste it. 😀
As an expat in Hong Kong and despite all the amazing local food here - I crave these local takeaway dishes that I miss from the UK. I made this dish following the recipe and I cannot believe how easy it was to make and just how delicious it was. Can't thank you enough for this recipe - I definitely see this becoming a staple dish when we have guests around!
The recipe above is what my mom used to make since i was little..if you add some curry leaves and curry powder, it turns even wonderful! chinese cuisine calls it kamheong..
Excellent. Thank you. I love the way that you edit your content to convey all the important information, without wasting any time unnecessarily. I wish I had discovered this channel earlier.
I made your Tuscan chicken a while back. More than your food I want affirm the generosity of your spirit in sharing your talents. May you be rewarded many times over🙏🏽
Wow, thank you so much :)
Ive made her Tuscan loads a few times, I love it!!!!
Love the Tuscan Chicken.
Wow, that was superb. I wanted to give my Wife a break, so I decided to cook your recipe for tonight's evening meal. My Wife helped prep the sauce, chop the onion, chilli, garlic cloves etc, it looked and tasted just like you get in a Chinese restaurant. Thank you for a cracking recipe and video. Managed to find most of the ingredients in the larder, bought the rest. Struggled to find rice vinegar, though. I'll try again. Definately going to make this again. Cheated by buying microwave egg fried rice!! BW from South Somerest
I think you are doing everything just right. The recipes give specific instructions, the videos are clear and are presented in a genuine and warm manner. Receiving the recipes in a random way encourages me to try new things. If I had to suggest
just one thing it would be meals for the freezer.
Actually mad this over the weekend and it actually came out 10/10, usually I’m abit skeptical over these types of recipes but it’s one that I would recommend everyone watching to make, just as good as a takeout but without it being too salty
OMG I just made this for dinner tonight and it is the BEST thing I have ever made!!! I followed your directions EXACTLY and I surprised myself that it was sooooo good! Better than take-out! You are an absolute ⭐️ !!!! Thank you so much.
Did u use all the sugar suggested here?
@@loobylooroden6176 When I made this, I used 6tsps rather than 6tbsps of sugar and it was plenty sweet enough (and delicious!) - couldn't imagine eating it with the amount suggested in the recipe, but I suppose we all have different palates haha
@@Aiden-dp7mjI will try that, thank you.
I made this following every step of your recipe. I can honestly say it’s the best crispy beef I’ve ever had. So simple and so nice not having to deep fry. I’ve shared this with all my friends and will definitely be looking at your other dishes. Thank you so much
Best crispy recipe
I've been cooking 40+ years at home and professionally, and generally loathe most YT "chefs" (term is debatable). But YOU I like. You're not trying to be cutesy, shocking or funny - or engage people emotionally. You are brief, concise & recipes are exactly to my taste. I'm a big fan, & wish you every success. Edit: Thank you for not forcing me to another website to view a written recipe. Often on YT it is evident that viewers are being heavily manipulated and when I am enjoying myself at home, that turns me right off. Kitchen sanctuary is right.
If you know Adam Ragusea, I want to know what you think of him. Is he okay to you? For me he gives me pretentious superiority complex with a social graces of a 13 yr old child sort of vibes. Much love and respect.
@@damienrichards9743can see that you get that vibe. I do respect that he does a lot of testing himself
Nicky, I made this for the first time tonight along with your fried rice recipe. OMG, outstanding. Absolutely delicious, the sauce worked a treat, the sirloin was tender and crispy, the rice light, fluffy and super tasty. Perfect. Thanks for the easy to follow video, really appreciate you taking the time and effort to post. Yum.
Cooked this tonight for me and my wife, was really nice. Used a cheaper cut of steak but still good, so imagine it's better with sirloin. Thank you very much
I made this the first time according to the directions. Second time, I doubled the amount of sauce, since I like a lot of sauce with my meat, and I used Louisiana Hot Sauce in place of the chili pepper. This dish is a keeper!!! YUM! Thank you!!!
I took your advice and doubled the sauce also! But I used to red Thai chili peppers and 2 green Thai chili peppers and the sauce was amazing!
thanks. so i'll start with twice the amount of Sauce plus 1 Reaper, this should be fine and asian hot :)
@@paranoidflow1337 1 Reaper? Lightweight lol
Made this for my family last night...... It was FANTASTIC! Reduced the sugar to 3, added a teaspoon of baking soda to the beef, a half cup of beer, and some thinly sliced carrot sticks.....this was my late mum's favourite Chinese restaurant dish, and I have been wanting to make it for ages! Thank you so much for making it so easy to prepare.....😊
Usually I find recipes need a bit of tweaking but this one worked perfectly the first time. Followed everything to the letter and I don't think I would be able to tell the difference between this and an actual takeaway. Great recipe!
Followed this guide twice now and its absolutely gorgeous, to help in between second or third frying of beef strips i place the strips round the top of the bowl as it is all stuck together in a clump its so much quicker taking the strips off the edge rather than faffing around in bottom of bowl.
Nice tip. Thank you!
Thanks Nicky, tried this last night and it was an absolute winner! Took some of the others advice and I only used 2 tablespoons of the sugar and it was epic. Even re-heated in the microwave next day it was as good as anything we have had delivered! Looking forward to trying more of your recipes! All the best, your new fan in Portsmouth!
I'm definitely going to try this Nicky. This is my favorite. If I can hack it, I know what's my menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner! 🔥👊🏼
Just made this for dinner tonight, 10/10. Much tastier than any takeaway Crispy Chilli Beef I've ever had!! Thank you :)
That’s a hell of thumbnail you got there. Very appealing.
looked like bugs to me. no offence btw
The thumbnail got me too
Never even noticed. Eyes 100% on the food 😋
thats why im watching it broo
I wish every cooking show was all about the food like this One. Some of them take a couple of hours to fry an Egg.
Although several of my Chinese ancestors turned in their graves when they saw how much sugar she put in..
@@karadan100 The sugar is what bothered you? I was pretty thrown off by the ketchup...
@@LauncherSpiderMk7 same shit
ikr, and they all have like 20 bowls of per-measured ingredients that they just lob into the bowl. It looks so fake.. This was way more straight to the point! I like it!
Made this dish tonight, absolutely amazing taste and simple to make.
Great to hear!
Made this for dinner tonight and OMG it was absolutely amazing!! better than the take away my kids said!! WOW Thanks Nicky....... Gonna be trying a few more of your recipes!! yummy.....
This was fantastic! Here in Florida we don’t have many Chinese food places that make this. Panda Express has something similar, and there are a few places here and there that do, but once you get it home, the crunchy coating has become mushy, the beef is rubbery, etc. That sauce is so good! Put everything over some house made fried rice and man oh man, that is a dish that’s going on my regular rounds. Thank you! 😊
I subscribed to your account a couple of weeks ago. I first made your Beef Bourguignon and it was popular with my kids, then one day I saw your Lancashire hotpot pop up as a suggestion so gave it a go. I added Rosemary as well and browned the lamb in flour and added a spoon later too. I then promptly shared your recipe after we had immense success with my kids. I'm from Wigan and my kids had never had a traditional dish from my neck of the woods. So now it' a firm fave. Planning on the Biryani this week. Thanks for your well explained, simple and short videos. You are now my favourite youtube chef! :)
Aaawwww thanks Martyn, We're so pleased you are enjoying the videos and the recipes :)
Super delicious! Went down a treat at my house and now it's at the top of my daughter's favourite recipe list. The sauce is also perfect for a quick stir fry. Thanks for sharing.
I adore this recipe. Thank you for sharing it! I still can’t quite get them as thinly sliced and as crispy as I imagine them in my head, but I’m tinkering with each attempt!
Made this tonight & served with your egg fried rice! Went down a storm. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend both recipes.
I'm so glad I found your channel.. Your meals look absolutely amazing and I've made the creamy pork and apple casserole. I've got a list of recipes I want to try xx
Awesome! Thank you!
We love your stir fry recipes. We tried the crispy beef tonight, and wow, it was super gnarly and delicious. Our grocery store, Wegmans, has the sirloin steak pre cut into thin strips. Thanks. The recipe and your presentation was so easy to follow.
I've been looking to make this for a long time but never knew if it had a formal name or not, now that I've discovered it I'm happy. Thank you. Thank you so much!🔥🤲🏿🙏🏿💯
Finally got round to cooking your crispy chilli beef 😛😋❤️ the sauce is sooo delicious and the beef tasty and crispy. We didn’t want it to end and we can whole heartedly confirm that it’s better than take out. You can’t beat fresh ingredients made by yourself. Already cooked your honey and lemon chicken also delish and will do that again this Saturday. Love being able to watch it being made first. Thank you, keep them coming! 👏🏻👅
You around Carole
I made this for my family tonight, we all loved it! Will definitely be making it again, next time with soy sauce as someone put the bottle back empty and I didn't notice lol
I tried the crispy chilli beef recipe and the egg fried rice and it absolutely blew me away. It was absolutely fantastic tasty dish. Your recipe are so easy to follow and I will be definitely trying your chicken fried rice also. Don't stop sharing your knowledge and recipes you are a legend and thank you for opening my eyes to how simple great tasting food is to make.
I had this yesterday for lunch and though I don’t normally eat a lot of beef, I do get sick of eating chicken all the time. This will be a nice and easy switch up to dinners when I want something different. I’m definitely trying this!
Thank you so much for this recipe! I made this last night and we absolutely loved it! Easy directions and quick! Will definitely be a staple in our household.
This looks like the ginger beef from my fav restaurant... I can have it at home now 🤯, anytime I want. Thx
I make this regularly and always deep fry it in a pan. Amazed you got the same results shallow frying! Will try this soon as it’s quite a pain dealing with the oil afterwards although I normally put some kitchen roll in a sieve and pour it through that and then back in to the old oil bottle to reuse a few times.
Oh my gosh! Nicky, I believe that I would be selfish...and enjoy this one all by myself. Unfortunately, the sliced red chili wouldn't agree with the loved ones I love to hang with...but I would love, love...and love this just as you made it😋! Thank you Nicky. I can't wait to dive into this one!!! Cheers my friend🍻🙏.!!!
Ahhhh it’s like you read my mind every time you post on what I’m hungry for 🤤🤤 also my fave thing to get from Chinese too 🙌
😋
This looks great …that’s a good tip about not moving it around so much and it won’t be as crispy …I can’t wait to try this out 😎
Doesn't need the sugar, the sweet chill sauce gives plenty of sweetness
Hello Nicky!!! I just made this dish with your a other recipy for egg fried rice and I just felt in love in all those flavours 💗💗 thank You for an amazing recipy and of course its first of many times I'll make it :)
I can't wait to try this dish. I just made the Tuscan chicken in a cream sauce and It was so tasteful, with the chicken so tender. This chili beef is surely going to be a favorite. I also made the chicken biryani and it was just as tasty. I love how easily the recipes can be followed.
Brilliant, so glad you're enjoying the recipes Jack
Made this for the first time the other day, had to adjust quantitites of ingredients for one person i.e. 1x sirloin etc, but it came out pretty much spot on for my first attempt, the taste is amazing! I will definitely be trying more of your recipes! :)
Good tip... try using potato starch, its cleaner and gives a better crunch.
Cooked this for my wife and it was gorgeous 10/10. Next time I will try it with slightly less sugar.
I've been cooking for my parents for over a year now 2 or 3 times a week. They said this was the nicest meal yet!
Great job, Peter!
WOW,,WOW,WOW. So moorish, 😋
My stepmother won't allow me to cook for them.
@@johnosullivan2540 Moorish?
@@indianathe3rd742 Yeah. He wants more...sort of
This is one of my fave takeaways, and I’ll be trying this for tea tomorrow. I can’t wait.
My partner made this tonight for dinner and your fried rice and it was DELICIOUS. Thank you so much! He also loved your directions and timing prompts as he's new to cooking. I've never seen him so excited to cook. You must try this recipe if you're on the fence. It won't disappoint.
Excellent ! I prepared the recipe for my family tonight . I followed all the steps carefully . So delicious ! My family liked it. Thanks from Robert in Tulsa Oklahoma .
I had dinner half an hour ago but I am dribbling watching this.
Hi kitchen sanctuary congratulations on your success love watching your youtube channel absolutely outstanding on UA-cam absolutely amazing congratulations to you love from paul Roberts God bless you
Thank you so much 😊
Super delicious! The only improvement I’d make for that takeaway taste is to add a pinch or two of MSG to really give the beef that umami kick! Thanks again for the video, fabulous content!
I love ALL of your videos. I'm working my way through them all, week by week! The videos are well articulated and a joy to follow. Thanks for sharing such great content!
Looks great. In Australia I’ve found it called different names in different restaurants. “Crispy shredded steak”, “Rainbow steak”, “Shanghai Beef” … and I don’t get around much, so there could be a lot more. Definitely worth asking for if you don’t see it on the menu.
It's called Kim Wah Beef here in Benalla, Vic 😁 I remember the best beef used to be in the all you can eat Chinese restaurant in the Pancake Palour Plaza in Bourke St mall. The beef was bright red, so crispy and layered on fried rice noodles. So good!
Looking forward to making this, thanks for the fantastic content 😃
Shanghai beef here in Launceston. From Me Wah restaurant. Superb.
I can't wait to make this .this looks like the real deal .never buying this from a restraunt again if I can get this right thank you x
Hope you enjoy
This recipe is unreal. I've made this for two days on the run. I swapped out the sirloin for rump and used Apple Cidre Vinigar because the alternatives weren't available. It went down a treat for the whole family. I was asked to make it again tonight so I did and this time I used Gammon steaks and trust me... the gammon is on another fucking level. Boss recipe. Keep up the great work 👍
First time here and this is my favourite meal too, once I ordered it for the first time and tried it..never looked back. 🤣
Will be trying to make my own soon and was looking for a video to help and this is perfect!
Subscribed, keep up the amazing work. 💜
Just finished making your crispy chilli beef dish and I've got to say it was delicious, super sticky sauce covering the crispy beef , paired it with egg fried rice this has got to be my favourite yet of your recipes (I've tried a few lol)
We had your tea loaf for afters which was equally delicious, thank you Nicky keep the recipes coming
Amazing nicky! Love from far north Australia. Pls don’t stop making these videos. Tonight I’m gonna finally try make your orange chicken 🍊🍗🥃🍴
Glad you like them!
@@Kitchensanctuary like??? NO....love! ❤️ can’t wait for the next one 🤤
Thanks Jimmy, Its my easy egg fried rice on Thursday ;)
@@Kitchensanctuary yummm!! Excited much 🤗☺️
Without a doubt the best recipe on this channel, iIve cooked it several times and it turns out perfect every time, far better than from a takeaway.
I made this for dinner tonight. It tasted incredible. It was a bit tricky putting th meat in, trying to dodge the splatter, and trying to keep my wok on the flame. Tricky but very very tasty. Great videos.
I always appreciate detailed advice on the "why of cooking " as well as the "how of cooking" - which this video provides.
Thank you very much.
i actually have everything to make this, thats a first. maybe i'll use honey instead of sugar
must of did something wrong, wasnt as good as i thought
I just made this .Thank you for sharing
The sauce was delious
The trick is to get the oil really hot I think I will buy a thermometer... has I would off liked it more crispy but I enjoyed it
had some steak cooked up but didnt feel like having it till next morning... then this video pops up on my feed realized how easy it is and had all the ingredients man so glad it did was awesome meal :D and very crunchy indeed.
OMG Nicky ....... I had no idea about a ‘splatter guard’ and always spend ages cleaning up after a fry 🤦🏻♂️ - you learn something new every day 👍🏻
Great looking recipe as always, can’t wait to give it a try 😊
It saves so much mess in our kitchen LOL
Just got round to making this tonight. 5 star. Absolutely loved the taste of this. Will certainly be making this again. Thank you for sharing.
Fantastic!
Made this last night and it was lush, we absolutely loved it! My problem was that I tried making it at the same time as the egg fried rice, which didn't go well at all (burnt I'm afraid!). But this was fabulous, thanks for the recipe.
I made this today, it was ridiculously easy and delicious, nicer than any time I got it out, can’t recommend it highly enough!
That looks super gnarly! Not a rice fan myself, but i would eat that right out of the pan😎.
When I was testing this most of it left the pan befor i could serve it up LOL
This comment confused me. I've only ever heard gnarly be used in a very negative way. 😳
I’d lick the pan clean
Another fantastic recipe, love your knife Nicky😊thanks for all your recipes. The best cookery videos on utube. Stay safe 💐xxxx
Yay thanks Dawn :)
OMG.!!! Have been looking for this dish for years.!! I used to eat a version of this plate made with shredded beef . I used to order it with crispy rice covered with a sweet and sour spicy sauce with diced pineapple.
Hello, how are you doing Jose??
I made this twice and it's amazing. I substituted the red chili for 1 tsp. red chili flakes.
This looks delicious. I mouth watering on this side of the screen as well. I'll have to cook this, and soon 😋
Let us know how you get on if you do give it a try :)
I have Chinese food maybe every 3-5 years, but it is interesting to see it being made.
I occasionally sit down and there are some marvellous carpentry videos to be had.
Gotta b straight with you, I watch more cheffy chefs on UA-cam, but every time a link of yours comes up in my feed your food looks absolutely boss and then I watch the video and it doesn’t disappoint. Ps this is not a backhanded compliment I am actually giving you major props for spanking up these so called “trained professionals” lol 👌🏻
That's looks so good. We used to get this from a takeaway in Norwich and we loved it. We now live NZ and you don't see it on the menus here. Will cook this tonight and report back tomorrow.
It was awesome. Got a little leftover for lunch. My kids loved it.
Your creamy pork and apple casserole is in the oven at the moment, ive had a sneaky taste and it's so , so good the family will love it .This looks another winner and when you do the egg fried rice later in the week i'll be doing that as well . Thanks for the inspiration.
You're welcome. So glad you're enjoying the recipes!
That looks fantastic
Thanks :)
I picked up the wrong 🥩 while shopping my husband was 😠 I had to get a recipe quick yours popped up and saved the day😋😋 this was so good the flavors blended perfectly. 🤩 thank you!
Absolutely delicious! second time making this, I add a little water to increase sauce amount which doesn't effect the taste 100% my fav meal atm ❤
Yet another idea stored away for when I'm in a cooking mood. Thanks, Nicky and Chris.
Our pleasure!
That beef looks gorgeous and so does your hair :-)
Saving this one for sure, thanks for sharing it!
Your hair
Her hair is rockin.
glad to know you can shallow fry this. I really dislike deep frying food just because I'm not a fan of overly oily food. I'll definitely try this.
I like the look of this, like you I don't like deep frying when I have to throw out a load of oil. I love crispy beef and will try this out. Yum, yum!
I added a tablespoon of sesame seeds to the beef/egg/flour mix. Perfect.
Looks delicious but I'll definitely use less sugar.
I did that and it turned out great!
Yeah I almost fell off my chair at 'six tablespoons of sugar' !
Does it works with less, and how much less?
I think you could get away with about two tablespoons.. add more sweet chilli sauce
Why use less sugar? Is the goal to make it taste like shit?
My husband's favourite too! You make it look quick, simple and delicious. It will be Fridays dinner..🤤. Thank you...
It's so good!
Made this last night, delicious! The only tricky bit is placing each sticky beef strip in one by one (hands splattered by hot oil) but well worth the discomfort.
Love your videos and recipes, Nicky! I've made several of them. Keep up the great work!
That's dinner sorted for Friday evening!! Many thanks.
Any time!
Friday's dinner has been had, crispy beef with fried rice. Delicious!
Thank you for the recipes.
Brought your book never really cooked before..now I'm loving the kitchen great book..
It was yum! We ate it all. We are bad. Thanks for the video and the Egg Fried rice one (I made that too). Weird watching a fellow left hander cutting stuff. I now know how those right handers feel when they watch me.
This was a delight. Recipe was easy to follow and the result was delicious!
Thank you, this dish looks like an absolute winner! Will be on our table this Friday evening 😊
Hope you enjoy
Hello! I made the dish this evening and it was yummy, thank you! I was surprised how much sugar went in 😂 Dangerous
Also, very grateful that you list the ingredients in the description, that was handy when shopping for ingredients.
Did it get too sweet after 6tblsps of sugar?
@@khadijazakir3717 it wasn’t too sweet, tasted great 👍
Just made it for the family - it was an absolute winner. Like others in the comments I reduced the amount of sugar to about 1/3.
