Step 1

Cut each of the 12 scallions into 1/2-inch peices on a diagonal. Set aside.

TO MARINATE THE BEEF

Step 2

Cut flank steak across the grain and at a slight angle into 1/4-inch thick strips. (partially freeze steak first to make this easier). Place in a large bowl. Toss beef strips with egg whites and mix well. Add remaing marinade ingredients to beef and mix. Set aside for at least 30 minutes.

TO MAKE SEASONING

Step 3

Cut softened orange peel into 1/2-inch wide strips. In a small bowl, combine peel with remaing seasoning ingredients.

TO MAKE THE SAUCE

Step 4

In another bowl, broth, soy sauce, rice wine, vinegar, sugar and cornstarch. Whisk well to disslove cornstarch. Stir in sesame oil.

Step 5

To cook beef: Pour peanut oil into a wok and heat over high heat until hot enough to brown a bread cube tossed into it. Add 1/3 of the beef and fry until it loses its color, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove beef with a skimmer or slotted spoon to a bowl and set aside. Repeat with remaining beef. Pour off all but 2 tbls of oil.

Step 6

Return the wok to high heat. Add seasoning mixture and stir-fry rapidly for 30 seconds. Add the 12 cut scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add sauce mixture and stir until hot and thickened.
