Beef with Mandarin

Serves 4


Ingredients:

350g rib eye steak, finely sliced
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp dry sherry
1 tsp chopped fresh ginger
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp peanut oil
¼ tsp ground white pepper
2 tsp finely chopped dried mandarin or tangerine peel
2 tsp soy sauce, extra
1½ tsp caster sugar
1½ tsp cornflour
⅓ cup (80ml) beef stock


Method:

1. Place the beef in a bowl. Mix the soy sauce, sherry, ginger and sesame oil together, stir through the meat to coat it. Set aside for 15 minutes.
2. Heat the peanut oil in a wok or heavy-based frying pan, swirling gently to coat the base and sides. Add the beef and stir-fry over high heat for 2 minutes, until meat changes colour.
3. Add the pepper, peel, extra soy sauce and sugar, stir-fry briefly.
4. Dissolve the cornflour in a little of the stock; add the remaining stock. Add the cornflour mixture to the wok and stir until the sauce boils and thickens. Serves with rice.
