Hunan Stir-Fried Beef with Hot Peppers 小炒黄牛肉 for dinner.
It was super delicious and spicy. I just learned that hot peppers can make you sneeze. That was a first. Sweating was not a first.
This inspired by a dish that Lori ordered at Barshu in London’s Chinatown. I amped up the dish with MSG. There’s also light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, garlic, ginger, and scallions.
I went with Fresno chile for a spicy red, and serrano chilies for spicy green, and a green bell pepper that I needed to use up. I threw in a small handful of the little green Tabasco peppers that come in Texas Pete Pepper Sauce. They add heat and a nice zingy vinegar kick to cut through the richness of the sauce / marinade. They also add some additional color.

That dish looks absolutely amazing. Those vibrant colors and the glossy sauce look seriously delicious.
Would you be interested in exploring quick-cooking techniques like “velveting” to take the texture of the meat in your stir-fries even further? It can make it even juicier and more tender.
Velveting basically means marinating the meat with cornstarch, egg white, and a splash of sauce (sometimes a bit of rice wine too), then giving it a quick pre-cook in hot water or oil before the final stir-fry. The result is meat that’s silky and super tender just like in the best Chinese restaurants!
Would you be up for trying it in your next version? With your personal touch and great sense of flavor, I think you could take it to the next level 😉1-
@sussan_scoolinaryteam Thanks Sussan! I actually did employ the velveting technique. The meat was super moist and tender.

This sounds like a full-on flavor rollercoaster… heat, umami, vinegar kick… everything in perfect chaos! 🔥 And the sneeze moment? That’s when you know you’re doing it right 😅 Love the creativity with the peppers too.
