To tell the truth, I DID go off-recipe here by subbing the fresh chilis for some Sichuan chili oil (which is a GREAT recipe by the way) so I may have complicated things a bit, but even if I kept to the recipe it’s an absolute banger–simple, yet effective, as all good and cheap meals are. Perfect with a poached egg mixed in!

Hi Elaine, Made this dish last night and I must say, they're so good. My mom couldn't believe how simple and straightforward this recipe was. We had everything on hand except for black vinegar which we substituted with white. It was nevertheless a perfect dish. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.

Hi Darlene,
Thanks for trying and let me know the result. This dish has a origin in Hunan cuisine which is famous for its spiciness. So I can guess it might be over spicy for lots of people. Vinegar used here is just a small amount, with the volatilization process, it can make the beef tastes tender and pure.
Happy cooking and go ahead to check other recipes. As you can find that I have lots of spicy recipes on my blog.

Holy god! This is the second time I’ve made this and I still find it too spicy. Followed the recipe exactly the first time and used less peppers and cooked them longer the second time and I still have tears and a runny nose while eating. Don’t get me wrong….it’s tasty just a bit too extreme even for my taste and I love spicy food! Proceed at your own risk! Btw, black vinegar was used the second time and balsamic vinegar was used the first time as I didn’t have black vinegar and there is absolutely no difference in flavor.
