Beef stir fry

Our beef stir fry was ready within minutes and gone in seconds. At approximately 450 calories (beef is higher in calories than pork tenderloin) it still failed to break the calorie bank. Here's our fabulous recipe:

BEEF STIR FRY 

Ingredients (serves 2)

200g beef steak cut into strips

small piece of fresh ginger

clove garlic

vegetable oil

soy sauce

stir fry sauce

sesame seeds

1 pack of stir fry vegetables

1 portion of egg noodles (i.e. half pack each)

****

PREPARE: Leave the beef to marinate in the stir fry and soy sauce. Leave for at least half an hour.

Cook the noodles according to the packet and set aside.

Chop the ginger and garlic and slowly cook in the oil in the pan. Do not let the garlic go brown or it will be bitter. This should take just a few minutes - and will flavour the oil. Remove the garlic and ginger from the pan and discard. 

COOK: Heat a saucepan/wok with a little oil and add the beef strips. The length of cooking time will depend upon the thickness of the meat.

Remove beef and set aside to rest while you stir fry the vegetables for a few minutes - adding a little extra soy sauce.

Add the prepared noodles to the pan, heat through - then add back the beef. Give everything a good mix.

Serve, sprinkled with sesame seeds if you like.
