Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin steak
- 50 grams corn starch
- 30 ml soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 50 ml vegetable oil
- 2 stalks spring onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Start by slicing the beef sirloin steak into thin strips, approximately 1 cm wide.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Toss the beef strips in this marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Step 3
While the beef is marinating, cut the spring onions into small thin slices for garnish.
Step 4
After marinating, sprinkle the corn starch over the beef strips and toss until they are evenly coated. This will help create a crispy texture when fried.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
Step 6
Carefully place the beef strips in the pan, ensuring they are in a single layer. You might need to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can cause the beef to steam rather than fry.
Step 7
Fry the beef strips for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 8
Once cooked, transfer the beef strips to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 9
Sprinkle the crispy beef strips with sesame seeds and garnish with sliced spring onions before serving.
Step 10
Serve immediately for the best texture, and enjoy your high-protein crispy beef strips as a snack or main dish!
