Recipe View Fry the Beef: Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Working in batches, carefully add the beef strips to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove the fried beef with a slotted spoon and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil. Set aside and keep warm. (20 minutes)

Recipe View Create the Sauce: Heat the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the julienned carrots, sliced green onions, minced ginger, and minced garlic. Stir-fry until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 3-5 minutes. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Combine and Serve: Pour the soy sauce, rice vinegar, granulated sugar, and red pepper flakes into the skillet with the vegetables. Bring the sauce to a simmer, stirring until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce slightly thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Add the fried beef strips to the sauce and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving hot over rice. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before coating it in the cornstarch mixture.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the spiciness of the dish.
Serve immediately for the best crispy texture. If making ahead, keep the fried beef separate from the sauce until ready to serve to prevent it from becoming soggy.
