Orange Crispy Beef Recipe

* For tenderness and appearance, be sure to cut the beef strips diagonally across the grain.

In a small bowl, toss beef strips with a sprinkling of salt.

Stir in beaten egg white.

In a medium bowl, prepare batter by combining flour, cornstarch and baking powder.

Mix egg yolk with half of the water and add.

Whisk in additional water until a smooth, runny batter develops.

Heat oil to 32 5.

Dip beef strips in batter.

Carefully place strips in hot oil and fry for about a minute or until batter is set.
