Combine sauce ingredients separately (for best flavor - let the combined sauce ingedients sit for an hour before using).

Heat wok and add oil. When wok is hot Add the dried chili peppers. Cook stirring constantly for 30 seconds, then add steak and marinade (which you just mixed with the egg and flour). Do not add the sauce mixture. Cook stirring constantly until the steak is cooked, then pour in sauce mixture and let it reduce for 2 minutes over high heat, still mixing.

Add green onions and cook for two minutes longer.

Serve over rice, or puffed (deep fried) bean threads.
