Here is a doozie of a recipe. This is what I was originally meant to make in the place of the orange-ginger pork chops but… let’s just say someone forgot to take half of the meat out of the freezer and let’s just leave it at that.
Anyway, this is a very quick recipe and although I will be having a delicious Chinese takeaway tonight (Happy Birthday to me) this could easily be made in under ten minutes.
- 450g steak, trimmed of fat and thinly sliced
- 3 tsp brown sugar
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp mirin
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 6 spring onions, sliced lengthways
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
Add the beef to a bowl with the sugar, soy sauce, mirin, garlic and sesame oil. Mix everything together and pour into wok that has been sprayed with oil and heated over a medium flame.
Sear the meat for a few minutes on each side and then add the spring onions. Stir-fry for an extra minute then add the sesame seeds. Serve with rice.

Verdict: This is very similar to another recipe that I made a year ago but due to the shorter cooking length and use of the marinade in the cooking made for something far more flavourful and tender. So if you are in the market for Korean style beef then this is the better version.
