Editor’s note: The flavors of Chinese takeout can be mind-bendingly delicious, yet seemingly impossible to duplicate at home. Joanne from Fifteen Spatulas plays around with a Crispy Orange Beef recipe until it’s “totally scrumptious.” I can’t wait to try this out on my family at home. --Jane
Many Chinese restaurants charge rock-bottom prices and use low-quality ingredients. Few things gross me out more than taking a bite of meat and finding that the majority of it is a big hunk of rubbery fat (gag!) and gristle. The solution of course, is to make Chinese food at home. And today I’ll be showing you how to make one of my favorites…crispy orange beef!
