Ingredients
For the marinade:
Method
- Mix together all the ingredients for the marinade. Add the beef strips and mix well. Cover and leave to marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- In a large sauté pan or wok, fry off the beef and all the marinade until coloured. Add enough water to just cover then turn the heat down to a very low simmer and cook for 2 hours until meltingly tender. You can freeze it at this point.
- When you are ready to serve, just bring the meat and its sauce up to the boil, add a little more water if it's too thick, adjust the seasoning to taste. Add the vegetables and rice, heat through fully and serve.
