Ingredients

• 300 g beef fillet
• 1 head of broccoli
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 clove of garlic
• 1 piece of ginger (about 2 cm)
• 1 tsp sesame seeds
• 3 tbsp soy sauce

Method

You’ll need: frying pan · wok · chopping board · knife

1. Cut the beef fillet across the grain into thin strips. Break the broccoli into small florets and finely chop the garlic and ginger.
2. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan or wok until very hot. Sear the beef in batches over a high heat for 1–2 min, then take it straight out.
3. Add a little more olive oil to the pan. Fry the broccoli, garlic and ginger briefly until everything is fragrant.
4. Add the soy sauce and reduce the heat a little. Cook the broccoli until tender-crisp so it still keeps some structure.
5. Return the beef to the pan and toss briefly until it's hot again.
6. Arrange on plates and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Best served straight away.

Swaps

Beef fillet → rump steak (similar protein content, often a little stronger in flavour); soy sauce → tamari (usually gluten-free, with a similar flavour); sesame seeds → chopped walnuts (provide fibre and omega-3 fatty acids); olive oil → avocado oil (suitable for high heat, mainly unsaturated fats)

Allergens

Soy sauce contains soya and usually gluten, and sesame is an allergen too; season mildly for children, and during pregnancy cook the beef well. Contains: soya, gluten (soy sauce; tamari is gluten-free), sesame.
