Easy Beef Stir Fry with Noodles

Cook the egg noodles according to the pack instructions, then drain.

Toss the strips of beef in the cornflour and set aside.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Put the vegetable in a small saucepan set over a medium heat. When the oil is hot, lightly fry the garlic for 1 minute, then add the ginger paste and cook for 30 seconds. Add the water, Kikkoman Soy Sauce and brown sugar to the pan and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce begins to thicken. Keep warm while preparing the rest of the ingredients.

For the stir fry, put the vegetable oil in a wok or large non-stick frying pan set over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, quickly stir-fry the beef in 2-3 batches. You want it to be crisp on the outside, but not cooked throughout. Transfer the seared beef to a plate. If the wok has a lot of oil in it, remove all but 1 tbsp.

Add the water chestnuts, peppers, broccoli and most of the spring onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes before returning the beef to the wok. Add the sauce, stir, and allow everything to cook for an additional 2 minutes before removing from the heat. Toss through the noodles and serve garnished with the remaining spring onions and sesame seeds, if liked.
