tiddy rooseveltHaven't been eating much recently so decided to make one of my favourite foods to encourage me for a few days. Crispy chilli beef, and some chow mein for good measure
Recipe: https://www.kitchensanctuary.com/crispy-chilli-beef/
I actually got the beef right this time.
Every other time I've made it, it went more soggy than crispy as soon as the sauce hit it, despite increasing cooking time with each attempt,. 'd basically cooked it until it was crispy and left it at that.
This time I didn't cook it, I cremated it. I left it in oil a lot longer than I really felt comfortable with and it seems to have worked perfectly
Elvis Prestwick@babe When I did cook that kind of thing the crispy chili beef was a real challenge with timing and flavouring, looks like you nailed it though!
@stx I cheat a bit by doing it in stages. The beef is cooked followed by veg, sauce mixed in a jug then all combined at the end. Saves the awkward timing in everything
@babe Oh you're not cheating! That's the secret, you're not spinning plates all of the time. You can just take one of the plates down and put it to the side. You did a good job, chef!

I remember the last time I made it was because you posted pics of yours, and it looks like I'll need to do that again :P
@diffractie It is *so* good, especially with a decent soy

Simon Rolfmore@babe did you post this recipe a while ago? I remember making (and loving) it from a recipe that looked very similar.
@cloudthethings Yeah I've posted it a few times now I think. It's the best one I've ever tried

For me a Ragù alla Bolognese is that kind of magic too.
