Ingredients

  • 300 g thin cut sirloin steak
  • 2 tbsp cornflour
  • 1 red pepper sliced
  • 80 g spring onions cut into chunks
  • 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced
For the sauce:
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp tomato ketchup
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp ginger paste
  • 2 tsp garlic paste
To serve:
  • Sliced spring onion
  • Toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Cut the beef into thin strips, then add it to a bowl with the cornflour. Toss until the beef is completely coated.
  • Heat a good amount of cooking oil in a frying pan or wok over a high heat. Add the beef and fry until it’s golden and very crispy.
  • Take the beef out of the pan and place it onto kitchen paper to soak up any excess oil.
  • In a clean pan, heat a small drizzle of oil over a medium-high heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook until lightly golden and crispy. Scoop out half of the garlic and set it aside for later.
  • Add the red pepper and spring onions and stir fry for 2-3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile mix the sauce ingredients, then pour it into the pan. Bring it to the boil and cook for 2 minutes until it reduces into a sticky sauce.
  • Add the crispy beef back into the pan and toss until every piece is coated in the sticky garlic sauce.
  • Serve with rice or noodles, then finish with the remaining crispy garlic, some sliced spring onions, and toasted sesame seeds.
