Szechuan Hot Fried Crispy Beef

4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cornflour
1 pound top beef, cut into strips
2 green onions, cut into 1 in pieces
2 chilies, shredded
3 garlic cloves, crushed
6 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons wine vinegar

Mix together the eggs, salt and cornflour and toss the beef in this until well coated.

Heat the oil in a wok to 350 degrees, or until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds, and stir-fry the beef for 1 1/2 minutes.

Remove and drain on paper towels.

Reheat the oil and deep fry the carrots for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Pour off most of the oil, leaving about 1 1/2 tbsps. in the bottom of the wok. Reheat, then add the green onions, chilies and garlic.

Stir-fry together for about 3 seconds over the heat then add the sugar, soy sauce and vinegar.

Return the meat and carrots to the sauce.
Toss over the heat and serve.
