Boiled Beef
This Sichuan-style water-boiled beef is a fiery, aromatic dish that’s bursting with bold flavors and tender textures. Thinly sliced beef is marinated with egg white, cornstarch, and savory sauces for extra tenderness, then cooked in a fragrant broth infused with dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and spicy bean paste. The dish layers heat and depth—first by stir-frying aromatics like ginger, garlic, and finger peppers, then by pouring sizzling oil over the top to unlock the full aroma of the chilies and peppercorns. Served over blanched vegetables, this dish balances tender beef with a numbing, spicy kick. Perfect for spice lovers, it’s a restaurant-quality meal that brings the authentic taste of Sichuan cuisine to your kitchen.
