You will need an air-fryer for this recipe.
Ingredients
- 4 150g Minute Beef Steaks (thinly sliced into strips)
- 1 tbsp Soy Sauce
- 2 Peppers (red or yellow) (seeds removed and cut into strips)
- 2 onions (cut into strips)
- 1 Red Chilli (seeds removed and sliced)
- 1 1/2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 2 tbsp Chinese Five-Spice Powder
- 2 Spring Onions (sliced to serve)
- Rice or Noodles (freshly cooked to serve (optional))
For The Glaze
- 2 tbsp Sesame Seeds (mix of black and white or whatever kind you have)
- 2 tbsp White Wine Vinegar
- 1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
- 2 tbsp Light Soy Sauce
- 2 tbsp Light Brown Sugar
- 2 tbsp Tomato Ketchup
- Preparation: 10 min
- Cooking: 30 min
- Ready in: 40 min
Instructions
- Mix the beef strips with the soy sauce in a bowl. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
- Heat the air fryer to 190C. Toss the pepper, onion and chilli in ½ tablespoon vegetable oil and cook for 10 minutes.
- To make the glaze, set aside about a teaspoon of the sesame seeds for sprinkling. Mix the remaining seeds with all the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Pour over the vegetables and return to the air fryer for 2 minutes. Remove and set aside in a bowl.
- Heat the air fryer to 200C. Add the cornflour, Chinese five-spice and remaining vegetable oil to the marinated beef mixture and mix well to coat. Lay the coated beef slices in the air fryer in a single layer, with space around them for the air to circulate. You may need to do this in two batches.
- Cook for 7 minutes until the beef strips have crisped up. Remove the tray halfway through and shake so that the beef pieces cook evenly. Once cooked remove from the air fryer.
- Pop the pepper and onion back in the air fryer for 2 minutes to heat up, then remove and mix with the crispy beef. Top with the spring onions and reserved sesame seeds and serve with rice or noodles.
