This is one of my adopted recipes. It looks like a dish my family and I would enjoy, so I hope to make it and edit it in the future.

4 cups peanut oil
15 green onion tops
1 tablespoon ginger, minced
1 lb flank steaks or 1 lb sirloin steak
1 1/2 tablespoons water chestnut flour
2 egg whites

cornstarch paste
1 teaspoon chili paste with garlic

2. Combine sauce ingredients in small bowl & stir thoroughly.

5. Beat with chopstick until frothy.
6. Add steak, & use fingers to coat each slice.
7. Deep-frying: In wok, heat oil to moderately hot.
