  • pinch of curry powder
  • pinch of ground ginger
  • pinch of bicarb soda
  • pinch of sugar

Method

  • Trim fat from steak, cut into bite size squares and flatten with a meat mallet.
  • In a ziplock bag, add the marinade ingredients, mix well then add the beef pieces. Massage the marinade into the meat and marinate for 2 hours or more if time permits.

  • Mix cornflour with water and set aside.
  • Add to clean pan, capsicum, onion, stock, extra soy sauce and sherry, *optional chilli sauce, and cornflour mix, bring to boil. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes, till vegetables are cooked but still crisp and sauce has thickened slightly.
