Ingredients
Scale
- 500 g Steak
- 2 tbsp Cornflour
- 2 tsp Chinese 5 spice
- 2 Green peppers, deseeded and sliced into thin strips
- 3 Spring onions, trimmed and sliced
- 2 tsp Red chilli, finely chopped
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 4 cm Ginger
- 2 tbsp Tomato ketchup
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 tbsp Sweet chilli sauce
- 3 tbsp Rice vinegar
- 4 tbsp Water
- 150 g Dried egg noodles
- 2 tbsp Sunflower oil
Instructions
- Start by cooking the noodles in a pan of boiling water according to the package instructions. As the noodles cook, slice the steak into thin strips and toss with cornflour and Chinese 5 spice until evenly coated. At the same time, prepare the vegetables and set them aside. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and set this aside as well.
- Heat a wok or deep frying pan with sunflower oil until very hot. Cook the steak strips in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding, which ensures they get nicely browned and crispy. Once cooked, remove the steak to a plate lined with paper towels.
- In the same pan used for the steak, add the peppers and chilli and cook for 2 minutes. Follow with the garlic, ginger, and spring onions, cooking for an additional minute. Pour the prepared sauce into the pan and allow it to cook until it turns glossy, which should take about another minute.
- Add the previously drained noodles and the cooked steak back into the pan. Stir everything together ensuring the noodles and steak are well coated with the sauce.
