Teriyaki Beef with Udon Noodles, Veg & Sesame Seeds

Marinate Beef:

Pat dry beef with paper towel and cut into 1.5 cm strips. Place beef strips in a bowl with teriyaki sauce to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Prepare Ingredients:

Put a pot of water on to boil. Wash the fresh produce. Peel and mince garlic. Trim and discard the ends of the spring onion and cut into 4 cm pieces. De-seed and thinly slice capsicum. Discard ends, then roughly chop Chinese broccoli stems and leaves. Peel and cut ¾ of the onion into 1 cm wedges (you will have left over). Peel and cut carrot length ways, slicing thinly on a slight angle into half moons.

Stir Fry Beef:

Heat olive oil (enough to cover base) in a wok (or fry pan) over high heat. Add beef and garlic, and stir fry in the hot pan for 3-4 minutes, until beef has browned. Remove from pan and set aside. (TIP: you may need to cook the meat in batches to prevent it stewing and becoming tough).

Cook Udon Noodles:

Once water is boiling, add udon noodles and cook for 8 minutes, drain and rinse under cold water to prevent noodles over cooking and sticking together. Set aside.

Cook Veg:

Meanwhile, in the same pan used for the beef, heat a little more oil and add onion wedges, carrot and capsicum, cooking for 3 minutes.

You Plate It:

Add the udon noodles, spring onion, Chinese broccoli, beef and remaining teriyaki marinade. Mix cornflour with 1 TBS of water and add to the pan. Cook for 2 minutes, until heated through. Divide between plates and garnish with sesame seeds. Enjoy!
