Ching makes an orange peel marinade for beef; dried tangerine or orange peel is used in many Sichuan stocks and marinades to enhance the flavour of the dish
Ingredients
For the beef
1 tbsp Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
2 tbsp light soy sauce
2 tbsp clear honey
4 tbsp orange juice
pinch ground white pepper
2 beef fillet steaks
1 tbsp groundnut oil
100g/3½oz fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced
To serve
mixed salad leaves
1 orange, peeled and segmented
1 spring onion, finely sliced (optional)

Method
1. For the marinade, place the rice wine, soy sauce, honey, orange juice and ground white pepper into a large bowl and whisk well to combine. Add the beef steaks, cover the bowl with cling film and leave to marinate for 10-15 minutes in the fridge.
2. Heat a wok until smoking and add the groundnut oil, then add the steaks, reserving the marinade. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side for rare, 2-3 minutes for medium, or longer for well-done. Transfer the steaks onto two serving plates, cover with foil and leave to rest for five minutes.
3. Pour the reserved marinade into the wok and cook over a high heat for 30 seconds, or until the sauce is sticky.
4. Add the shiitake mushrooms to the wok and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the mushrooms are softened. Add a splash of water to help create some steam to cook the mushrooms.
5. To serve, remove the foil from the plates and spoon the mushrooms alongside the steaks. Garnish with the orange segments and spring onion, if using, and serve with mixed salad leaves.

Ching makes a dish named after the way it’s served, surrounded by Chinese cabbage: the meatball is said to resemble a lion’s head, while the cabbage is the lion’s mane.
Ingredients
For the meatballs
500g/1lb 2oz beef mince
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tbsp grated fresh root ginger
2 spring onions, finely chopped
pinch sea salt
1 tbsp Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry (or more, to taste)
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
1 free-range egg, beaten
1 tbsp cornflour
pinch ground white pepper
For the finished dish
100ml/3½fl oz groundnut oil
750ml/1¼ pint vegetable stock
300g/11oz Chinese leaf, quartered lengthways
3 dried Chinese mushrooms, soaked in warm water for 15 minutes, then drained (alternative use fresh chestnut mushrooms, sliced)
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp cornflour, mixed with 2 tbsp cold water (optional)
sea salt and ground white pepper
2 large spring onions, sliced
dash sesame oil (optional)

Method
1. For the meatballs, place all of the meatball ingredients into a large bowl and stir to combine.
2. With damp hands, take a large mound of the minced meat mixture and mould into a ball that is a little larger than a golf ball. Place on a plate and repeat with the remaining meatball mixture.
3. For the finished dish, pour the groundnut oil into a large deep pan and heat over a high heat. Using a metal ladle, carefully lower each meatball into the oil and spoon some of the oil over the meatballs. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until golden-brown all over.
4. Pour all but two tablespoons of the cooking oil out into a heatproof bowl. Add the stock to the pan and arrange the slices of Chinese cabbage around the meatballs, curving them around the sides of the pan lengthways, then add the mushrooms and soy sauce and bring to the boil. Cover the pan, reduce the heat and cook gently for 15 minutes. Alternatively, cook the meatballs in the oven; arrange in a casserole dish, cover with kitchen foil and cook in a preheated oven at 100C/210F/Gas ¼ for 30 minutes. If the sauce is too thin, add the cornflour paste and stir until thickened.
5. Take the meatballs off the heat and season, to taste, with sea salt and ground white pepper. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with the spring onions, sprinkle over a dash of seame oil and serve immediately.
