It’s been a Chinese restaurant staple for years and now it’s time to master it in your own kitchen. For the perfect result, make sure your pan is searing hot before adding the beef. Don’t be afraid to only cook the veggies for a few minutes either – you want them to keep a little bite.

The recent wet and cold weather across New Zealand has impacted our regular supply of fresh ingredients and as such, what you receive may be slightly different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, add brown rice and the water and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, until rice is soft, 25-30 minutes. Drain and set aside. • Return the saucepan to medium heat with the butter. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Return brown rice to the pan, then add a pinch of salt and stir to combine. Remove from heat.

• Meanwhile, drain sweetcorn. Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. • In a small bowl, combine char siu paste, oyster sauce, the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, the sesame oil and a dash of water. Set aside. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook beef strips in batches, until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

TIP: Cooking the beef in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.

Little cooks: Kids can help out with measuring the ingredients for the char siu mixture.

• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Stir-fry carrot, sweetcorn and mixed sesame seeds (reserve a pinch for garnish!) until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add baby spinach leaves and remaining garlic and cook until just wilted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add char siu mixture and cook until reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Return beef strips and any resting juices to the pan and toss to coat. Season to taste.
