1 Chef's Tips1 It is recommended to choose yellow beef without white sinew; if there are white sinews in the beef, they should be removed when cutting to avoid affecting the taste of the dish.



2 Using Sichuan pepper powder and chili powder can increase the numbing and spicy flavor of the beef threads. Do not use Sichuan peppers for seasoning, as you would need to pick them out while eating and be careful not to bite into a Sichuan pepper.3 To make the beef threads taste even better, it is suggested to first boil the beef in water before slicing it into strips, then frying and stir-frying it to prepare the dish.



4 When adding the beef threads to hot oil for frying, constantly stir to prevent them from sticking together. Fry until they are dry and slightly crispy.



Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan over low heat, stir-fry the ginger slices, scallion whites, and chili peppers.

Chef's Tip
1. It is recommended to choose yellow beef without white tendons; if the beef does have white tendons, they should be removed before cutting to avoid affecting the texture of the finished dish.
2. Using Sichuan pepper powder and red pepper flakes can enhance the spiciness and numbing flavor of the beef strips. Do not use Sichuan peppercorns as they need to be picked out while eating, which can be dangerous.
3. Marinate the beef strips before frying and stir-frying to make them taste drier and more fragrant. You can first blanch the beef in water, then slice it into strips, fry it, and stir-fry it to complete the dish.
4. When adding the beef strips to hot oil for frying, constantly stir to prevent sticking. Fry until slightly golden brown and dry before removing from heat.
