INSTRUCTIONS
Cut beef against the grain in slices 1/2 inch thick, then in rectangles 1 by 1-1/2 inches. Mince garlic, and combine with soy sauce, sherry, sugar, salt, prepared mustard, pepper and sesame oil. Mix well, then add to beef and toss gently to coat. Let stand 1 hour, turning meat occasionally. Drain well, discarding marinade. Then wrap beef in paper envelopes (see "HOW-TO SECTION"). Meanwhile, heat oil. Add beef a few envelopes at a time, and deep-fry until done (about 5 minutes). Drain on paper toweling and serve beef hot in wrappers. NOTE: The wrappers help hold in flavor and retain heat. To eat, the diner breaks the envelope open with chopsticks or fork and discards the paper.
