Spiced beef stir-fry topped with spring onion and coriander
Instructions:
- For the spicy coating:
- 2 tablespoons freshly ground cumin;
- 2 tablespoons dried chilli flakes;
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper;
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt.
- Prepare the fillet of beef by hammering it with a meat cleaver or the side of a Chinese cleaver. Slice into wafer-thin slices.
- Mix all the ingredients for the spicy coating on a plate. Coat the beef in the spice mix.
- Heat a wok or pan over a high heat and add the groundnut oil. Add the beef and stir-fry for less than 1 minute until browned and tender. As the beef starts to cook, add the rice wine or sherry and season with soy sauce and a pinch of salt. Take off the heat, stir in the coriander and spring onion and serve immediately.
