1
Prepare the Steak
Slice the beef sirloin steak into thin strips, about 1 inch wide. This will help them cook evenly and become crispy.
2
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well mixed.
3
Add Water
Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

4
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5
Batter the Steak Strips
Dip each strip of steak into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated.
6
Fry the Finger Steaks
Carefully place the battered steak strips into the hot oil, a few at a time. Avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
7
Drain Excess Oil
Once cooked, remove the finger steaks from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
