Method

  1. 1 Slice the beef thinly across the grain, then marinate it with cornstarch and soy sauce for 20 minutes.
  2. 2 Cut the dried chilies into pieces and shake off the seeds for a spicy, aromatic dish that isn't bitter.
  3. 3 Toast the dried chilies with Sichuan peppercorns in oil over low heat for 60 seconds, then remove and set aside.
  4. 4 Roast the chilies in warm oil, not boiling oil; if the oil is too hot, the chilies will turn black and the whole pan will burn.
  5. 5 Sauté the beef in chili oil over high heat for 90 seconds, then add the onions and garlic.
  6. 6 Add the dried chili peppers, season with sugar, stir for 30 seconds, and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
