DEEP-FRIED TRIPE RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix flour with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper or paprika.
• Heat up oil in your wok to 375°F (190°C). Dredge tripe in flour and shake off excess flour. Slip pieces of tripe into hot oil. Do not crowd the tripe, deep-frying a few sections at a time until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer tripe to a plate lined with paper towels to drain off excess oil. Serve with your choice of vinegar for dipping.

CRISPY CHILLI BEEF

Steps:

• Put 350g thin-cut minute steak strips in a bowl and toss in 3 tbsp cornflour and 2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder.
• Heat 100ml vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan until hot, then add the beef and fry until golden and crisp.
• Scoop out the beef and drain on kitchen paper. Pour away all but 1 tbsp oil.
• Add 1 thinly sliced red pepper, ½ thinly sliced red chilli, sliced white ends of 4 spring onions, 2 crushed garlic cloves and thumb-sized piece ginger, cut into matchsticks, to the pan. Stir-fry for 3 mins to soften, but don't let the garlic and ginger burn.
• Mix the 4 tbsp rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce and 2 tbsp tomato ketchup in a jug with 2 tbsp water, then pour over the veg.
• Bubble for 2 mins, then add the beef back to the pan and toss well to coat.
• Serve the beef on noodles with prawn crackers, if you like, scattered with the remaining ½ sliced red chilli and sliced green parts of the spring onions.
