Steak will cook through once returned to pan, so no need to worry that it’s undercooked when slicing!


Ingredients

Jasmine Rice

  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 3 cups water

Teriyaki Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornflour
  • Pinch of chilli flakes (optional, adults)

Sirloin Stir-Fry

  • 600g beef sirloin steaks (at room temperature)
  • ¼ red onion
  • 1 capsicum, core and seeds removed
  • 2 courgettes
  • 2 carrots

Steps

  1. Combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
  2. While rice cooks, combine all teriyaki sauce ingredients in a shallow bowl. Pat beef dry with paper towels and place in bowl with teriyaki sauce to marinate for at least 5 minutes.
  3. While beef marinates, thinly slice red onion, capsicum and courgettes. Peel carrot, cut in half lengthways and thinly slice.
  4. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat and cook beef (reserving marinade) for about 1 minute each side, until browned but not cooked through. Thinly slice then set aside. Return pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  5. Stir-fry onion, capsicum, carrots and courgettes for about 2 minutes, until tender but still crunchy. Add slices of beef (including resting juices) and reserved teriyaki sauce, and toss for 1-2 minutes, until sauce has thickened and beef is cooked to your liking. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. To serve, place ¾ cup cooked jasmine rice into each bowl and top with plenty of teriyaki sirloin stir-fry.
