Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat.
  2. Pat the beef dry with kitchen paper. Mix the cornflour with the salt and pepper, then toss the beef in it until fully coated.
  3. When the oil is hot, add the beef and fry until crispy, stirring about 3 or 4 times over 5-6 minutes, without moving it too much.
  4. Remove the beef with a slotted spoon and drain it on a bowl lined with kitchen paper.
  5. Lower the heat to medium. In the oil left in the pan, fry the sliced red pepper and onion for 2-3 minutes, until hot but still crunchy.
  6. Meanwhile, mix the orange zest, orange juice, soy sauce, sugar, crushed garlic, rice vinegar and ginger paste. Set aside.
  7. Pour the orange sauce over the vegetables, raise the heat and bring to the boil. Simmer for 1 minute.
  8. Return the beef to the pan, stir and heat through for 1 minute. If the sauce is too thin, stir in a little cornflour slurry to thicken.
  9. Once bubbling and thick, serve with boiled rice and garnish with the spring onions.
