How To Make Delicious Food

I had some beef strips that needed to be use up, so thought I would throw together a quick sweet chilli stir fry. This is super quick to make and only uses a few ingredients.

To give the beef a yummy coating a little bit similar to crispy shredded beef you get at the chinese, I use a starch coating and pan fry with a little oil in batches. I recommend using the oil rather than a spray oil, otherwise you won’t get the same result.

The sauce is then made and heated till thickened before added back in the beef strips to coat.

It is great served with some stir fried vegetables, I buy these bags of shredded vegetables which are nice and quick to cook as I don’t have to chop any veg, I just pan fry with a little spray oil and seasoning well with black pepper.

Ingredients

• 450g (1lb) of stir fry beef strips
• 1 tablespoon of tapioca starch (or arrowroot powder or cornstarch) (1.5 syns)
• 2 tsp of avocado oil (or other oil of choice) (4 syns)
• 2 tablespoons of sweet chilli sauce (3 syns)
• 2 tablespoon of soy sauce (not dark)
• ½ tbs of tomato paste
• ⅓ cup (80ml) of water
• 2 spring onions, finely chopped

Instructions :

1. In a bowl, whisk together the sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, tomato paste and water.
2. Set aside
3. Add the beef strips to a bowl with the tapioca starch and toss to coat
4. Heat a wok over a medium high heat and let it get hot before adding 1 tsp of the oil.
5. Add half the beef strips, and fry till lightly golden, giving it a light toss occasionally.
6. Remove from pan.
7. Add the other tsp of oil and repeat with the remaining beef strips. Removing from the pan to start the sauce.
