Crispy Shredded Beef - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 eggs, beaten
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 1/2 tablespoons cornflour
    150 g beef frying steak, thinly sliced strips (0.5-1 cm wide)
    vegetable oil, for deep frying
    2 carrots, finely julienned
    1 spring onion, julienned
    1/2 garlic clove, minced
    1 red chili, finely chopped
    10 g sugar
    2 tablespoons rice vinegar
    3 tablespoons sweet chilli dipping sauce
    splash soy sauce
Preparation
    Beat together eggs, salt and cornflour. Mix in the beef until well coated.
    Heat oil to 180C and deep-fry the beef strips, adding them individually. Leave them ten seconds before stirring, to prevent them sticking together.
    Cook for 6-7 minutes until brown and crispy. Don't overload the pan or they will end up soggy.
    As the beef cooks, remove it and drain on kitchen paper.
    Using a little of the frying oil, stir fry the carrot, onion, garlic and chilli. Add the sugar, vinegar, chilli sauce and soy sauce and mix.
    Add the beef and toss together.
