Stir-fry chilli beef with sweet potato jackets image

Enjoy this energising supper for a post-exercise pick-me-up. It supplies iron, vitamin C and fibre, plus an impressive five of your 5-a-day

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Supper

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 sweet potatoes (about 175g each)
1 thick, lean rump sirloin steak , trimmed of all fat (about 200g after trimming), thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves , finely grated
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp cold-pressed rapeseed oil
1 green pepper , halved, deseeded and sliced
1 tsp cumin seeds
2 tomatoes , cut into wedges
400g can black beans , drained and rinsed
1 tsp vegetable bouillon powder
handful of coriander , chopped, plus extra whole leaves to serve
1 small avocado , stoned, peeled, halved and chopped or mashed
1 lime , cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and bake the sweet potatoes for 45 mins, or until tender. Meanwhile, mix the steak with half each of the garlic and paprika.
  • Heat the oil in a non-stick wok and stir-fry the pepper for 1 min until starting to soften. Add the remaining garlic and the cumin seeds, and cook for a few minutes more. Tip in the tomatoes and the remaining paprika, and cook for 10 mins. Add the beans and bouillon, and stir-fry until heated through. Stir in the coriander. Halve the baked potatoes almost all the way through, and put onto plates. Top with the avocado and squeeze over some of the lime wedges, and divide the beans between the plates.
  • Return the pan to the heat and cook the steak for 5 mins. You shouldn't need to add any oil if you have a good non-stick pan, and if you don't wash the pan, you'll get some nice charred bits on the steak. The centre of the steak strips should be pink and tender. Pile onto the potatoes with a few coriander leaves, and serve with the remaining lime wedges for squeezing over.

SPICY BEEF STIR-FRY



Spicy Beef Stir-Fry image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 43m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons Chinese Shaoxing rice wine, dry sherry or white vermouth
1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain into strips
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
3 to 4 tablespoons peanut oil
1 1-inch piece fresh ginger, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, smashed
5 to 7 dried red chiles, halved
1 small onion, thinly sliced
8 heads baby bok choy, halved
Pinch of sugar
Cooked rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons rice wine in a medium bowl; add the beef, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Set aside for 15 minutes.
  • Mix the remaining 1 tablespoon rice wine, the oyster sauce and sesame oil in a large bowl; set the bowl near the stove.
  • Heat a wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat until very hot, about 1 minute. Add 3 tablespoons peanut oil, then the ginger, garlic and chiles; stir-fry until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the beef and cook, stirring or shaking the skillet occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the beef with a slotted spoon to the sauce mixture and toss.
  • If the pan is dry, add 1 tablespoon peanut oil, then add the onion and stir-fry until just soft, about 2 minutes. Add the bok choy and sugar; stir-fry until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the beef and any juices to the pan and stir to combine. Serve over the rice.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the beef and vegetables from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan.
  • Cook the beef in batches: If you try to cook all the beef at once, it will steam instead of sear. Cook the beef in batches so that it can brown properly.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: When you add the vegetables to the wok, don't overcrowd it. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Use a high heat: Stir-fries are cooked over a high heat. This helps to quickly cook the vegetables and beef without overcooking them.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately. This is when they are at their most flavorful and crispy.

Conclusion:

This spicy beef and sweet potato stir-fry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, the vegetables are crisp and colorful, and the sauce is spicy and tangy. Serve this stir-fry with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
