If you are anything like me.. you will LOVE Chinese food 😀 I certainly do. We tried this amazing recipe tonight and it was fantastic. A new favorite in our house that is for sure. The first time was a little spicy so i have adjusted the recipe slightly. (A little spicy may be underestimating a tad haha)

• Add all of the marinade ingredients to a mixing bowl.
• Add the beef and cover all of the strips allowing the marinade to soak in.
• Place the beef into a freezer bag or a covered bowl and keep in the fridge overnight or for as long as possible.

• Once you are ready to create your meal first start with the sauce.
• Add the boiling water and a stock cube into a jug to dissolve.
• Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and mix. Set this to one side until later.

The rest:

• Spray your pan with fry light and brown your beef.
• Once browned remove from pan and put to one side
• Chop the spring onion, onion, chillis and pepper and add to the pan with ginger and garlic.
• Cook until softened.

• Add the rice vinegar, Black beans and beef.
• Add the stock sauce.
• Cover with a lid and simmer on a low heat for around 5 minutes ensuring the beef is cooked.

Serve with rice or a speedy salad/vegetables 🙂 Enjoy, we certainly did!
