Beef Kway Teo
This is an excellent recipe especially for an after work fast meal that is full of flavour, and to me if just having some friends around for a meal a great recipe without a lot of effort. I love anything that can be done in the wok as it is always quick on cook time but what makes this recipe fantastic is the low prep time as well. I must admit I haven’t cooked beef a lot lately because of the expense and if you buy cheaper cuts they can be so tough and not enjoyable so I thought what is the point. I bought almost 2kg of fillet that was on major special so I have been cooking up a beef storm over the last couple of weeks and oh my god has the beef been great.

Ingredients

80ml Oyster sauce
3 Tablespoons ketjap Manis
3 Tablespoons Chinese cooking wine
2 Teaspoons sambal oelek
3 Cloves garlic, crushed
2 Teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
2 Tablespoons peanut oil
700g Beef,cut into strips
250g Egg noodles
4 Green onions
1 Red capsicum. sliced thinly
2 Tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
200g Bean sprouts
100g Snow peas trimmed

Method

1. Combine sauce, ketjap manis. cooking wine, sambal oelek, garlic and ginger in a bowl.

2. Heat half the oil in a wok and cook beef, in batches, until browned, remove and set to one side.

3. Meanwhile bring some water to the boil, add noodles, cook until tender, drain and rinse. If using fresh as I like to do, add noodles to boiling water, cover a couple of Min’s, drain, rinse and separate with a fork.

4. Heat remaining oil in wok, stir-fry capsicum and onion, until tender.

5. Return beef with bean sprouts, snow peas, noodles and chives, cook until hot and remaining veg are just tender.
