Ingredients
- 300 g Beef steak ( ribeye, sirloin or any tender steak )
- 1 Egg
- 1 Cup Corn/potato flour ( starch )
- 2 cloves Garlic

Seasonings spice ingredients
- ½ tsp Salt ( or salt to taste )
- ½ tsp Black pepper powder
- ¼ tsp Chinese five spices powder ( see in note )
- ¼ tsp Chicken powder ( optional ) ( see in note )
Instructions
- First of all cut the beef into thin strips. In a large bowl, mix the beef strips evenly with the beef marinate ingredients. Set aside and marinate for 15 minutes.
- Prepare the vegetables by cut the vegetables into thin slices.
- In a small bowl, mix all the seasoning ingredients evenly for later use.
- Break one egg in the marinated beef strips, mix it well.
- Coat each beef strips with corn flour. Make sure all beef strips are coated well and separated. Toss the excess flour out before frying.
- Heat the oil into high heat about 350° F. Add the beef strips and deep fry for1-2 minutes until the coating is crispy.
- Remove from oil and transfer to paper towel or cooling rack.
- Heat the wok/pan into medium high heat. Drizzle a tablespoon of oil, add the garlic slices and stir for 5 seconds, then add the onion and pepper slices. Toss for 1 min then all the beef strips back in. Sprinkle the seasoning spices and toss well for 1 minute to combine all ingredients.
- Transfer to serving plate and serve immediately!
- I usually have this dish with fried rice, steamed rice or stir fry noodles or just perfect on its own as a savoury snack.

Notes
- If you want to take exactly like the Chinese restaurants and takeaway you can add chicken powder in the seasoning but that is totally optional.
- Chinese five spices is a mixture of cinnamon, cloves, star anise, fennel seeds and Sichuan peppercorns powder. You can buy Chinese five spice in most Oriental/Chinese grocery stores.
