About

A nourishing meal both rich in flavour and easy to prepare, I find stir-fries are often the best standby for those moments when you’re lacking inspiration as you return home from school or work.

Method

Mix the oil, teaspoon of soy sauce, teaspoon of vinegar, ginger, garlic and honey or brown sugar in a bowl, then add the beef strips to a bowl. Leave it to marinate for a few minutes so the beef doesn’t dry out when you cook it. If the beef is quite a tough cut, leave it to marinate for longer in the fridge (you can do this the night before or morning of the day you plan to cook it).
