Ingredients

4 portion(s)
350 g
rump or sirloin beef steak
Juice of 1 lime
1 
red chilli, deseeded and very finely chopped
2 tbsp
sunflower oil
200 g
mushrooms, sliced or left whole if small
125 g
tenderstem broccoli
2 
heads of baby pak choi, shredded
75 g
bean sprouts

Preparation

Step 1

Trim any fat from the steak and cut the meat into thin strips. In a shallow dish, mix together the soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil and chilli, add the steak and turn the strips over until they are well coated.

Step 2

Cover the dish with cling film and leave in the fridge to marinate for several hours or overnight.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of sunflower oil in a wok or large frying pan. Lift half the steak from the marinade and stir-fry over a high heat for 2 minutes until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

Add the rest of the steak to the pan, reserving the marinade, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

Add the remaining oil to the pan and stir-fry the mushrooms for 2 minutes. Add the tenderstem broccoli, stir-fry for 1 minute, then add the pak choi and bean sprouts and stir-fry for a further 1 minute. Return the steak to the pan, pour over the reserved marinade and toss everything together over the heat for 2 minutes until piping hot. Serve at once.

Tip:

Toasted sesame oil is much stronger than ordinary sesame oil so, if using, only add a little to the dish or its favour will be too dominant and overpower the other ingredients. You can substitute a cheaper cut of steak suitable for frying if you prefer, although the end result won’t be as tender.
