Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until clear, combine with water in a saucepan. Bring to boil, cover, reduce to simmer for 15 minutes. Fluff rice and keep covered.
  2. Slice beef against the grain into thin strips (approx. ¼ inch thick).
  3. Coat beef strips in cornstarch, ensuring thorough coverage. Let rest for about 10 minutes.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet or wok to 180°C (350°F).
  5. Fry coated beef in batches for 3-5 minutes until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, sweet chili sauce, and sambal oelek in a saucepan. Heat until bubbling and slightly thickened (about 5 minutes).
  7. Add crispy beef to the sauce and toss to coat. Cook together for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  8. Serve jasmine rice topped with the glazed crispy beef. Garnish with green onions if desired.

Notes

Ensure oil is hot enough before adding beef to achieve the desired crispiness.
