Instructions

Instructions for marinade

  • This recipe requires the beef to be marinated overnight. I would recommend at least 12 hours.
  • Add all of the marinade ingredients in 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.

Instructions for 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 aside.

Remaining Instructions

  • Brown the beef over a medium heat using a little low calorie cooking spray.
  • Remove from the pan and the beef aside.
  • Over a medium heat add spring onion, onion, chillis, pepper, ginger and garlic to the pan. Add a small amount of water to prevent sticking.
  • Cook until softened.
  • Add the rice vinegar, black beans and beef.
  • Add the stock sauce that you created earlier.
  • Cover with a lid and simmer on a low heat for around 5 minutes ensuring the beef is cooked and all of the veggies are soft.
  • Serve and enjoy.
