Spicy and saucy Indo Chinese Chilly Beef! Indo Chinese dishes are favorite for many of us, that gives a touch of desi tadka(Indian touch) to the saucy Chinese dish! We Indians always love to have such food right?
This Chilly beef is one such dish, that is spicy with flavors of garlic and sauces that you can’t resist having it! This will be a perfect compliment with batura, poori, naan or fried rice!
