2. Blend cornstarch, salt and egg white. Add to beef and toss gently to coat. Meanwhile, heat oil.

3. Place beef in a wire basket or strainer. Immerse in oil, deep-fry 1 minute; then lift out. Reheat oil and deep-fry 1 minute more. Repeat process a third time, then drain beef on paper toweling.

4. Heat remaining oil. Add celery and chilli pepper. Stir-fry a few times to soften slightly. Stir in soy sauce, sugar and hot pepper oil. Stir-fry until celery is translucent (about 2 minutes).

5. Stir in beef shreds only to reheat.

NOTE: This Szechwanese dish may be served over rice or boiled rice-flour noodles. (The triple-frying makes the meat dark and chewy.)
