Stir frying originated in China as a way of cooking a meal very quickly as fuel was rare and expensive. This modern stir-fry beef recipe cooks in about 5 मिनट, and doesn't take much longer than that to prepare! I find myself cooking it almost once a week as it's so quick to do and my other half never seems to get fed up of it.
Preparation
- Cut the beef into thin strips, 5cm or so long
- crush the garlic and chop the chilli and basil leaves
- Mix all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the beef
- Marinade for at least 15 मिनट
- Whilst the beef is marinading, chop the veg into thin 5cm long pieces
- Heat some water in the medium pan
- Heat the wok on a high heat and add the marinaded beef mixture
- Cook for 2 मिनट, until there are only a few hints of pink remaining on the beef
- Remove the beef, leaving behind as much juice as possible
- Add the noodles to the water in the medium pan, which should be nearly boiling
- Add the veg to the wok with the juice left from the beef and stir for 2-3 mins
- Once the noodles are cooked put the beef back into the wok with the veg
- Strain the noodles and then cut across them in a + shape in the bottom of the strainer to shorten them a bit
- Add the noodles to the wok with the beef and veg and stir in well
- Turn off heat and serve. Add an extra splash of soy sauce if you want more flavour
Notes
- This recipe also works well with chicken or pork.
- If you want to save even more time, you can buy pre-cut "stir-fry vegetable" packs from your local supermarket.
