METHOD

For the Marinade:

1. Place all the ingredients in a bowl or shallow dish and mix well together. Place the beef strips into the marinade and cover in cling film for at least 2 hours or overnight.

For the Stir Fry:

1. Remove the marinated beef from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
2. Heat a wok or heavy based frying pan until it is very hot and add the sesame oil.
3. Add in the red onions, peppers, baby corn and crushed garlic. Cook on a high heat for 3-4 minutes stirring constantly.
4. Heat a separate frying pan heat and add the rapeseed oil to the pan. Gently add the striploin beef, reserving the marinade and stir fry for 2-3 minutes until well-sealed and lightly coloured.
5. Add the reserved marinade to the vegetables along with the juice of 1 lime followed by another tablespoon of soy & ginger sauce. Add in the mangetout to the vegetables and mix well.
6. Add in the sealed off beef to the rest of the vegetables and stir to combine. Add in the chopped coriander followed by the toasted cashew nuts. Season to taste.
7. To serve, place the egg fine noodles in the centre of the plate and spoon over the stir fry and finish with a sprig of fresh coriander.

Neven’s Tip: 

The marinade will keep up to a week in the fridge and works perfectly with chicken, pork or lamb
