Ingredients

350g frying steak or thinly cut minute steak cut thinly into strips (like 'worms')
A few glugs of soy sauce
1 clove of garlic (peeled)
1 tbsp of smooth peanut butter

Handy Hint

You can also add some spring onions and other stir fry vegetables, like baby sweetcorn, mange tout whatever.

Method

1. Put peanut butter in a cup and soften in the microwave for 10-20 secs.
2. Place strips of beef in a dish, crush over garlic clove, and throw on a few shakes of the soy sauce.
3. Spoon over the now-runny peanut butter, then cover and let it marinade for as long as you can.
4. Heat oil in a wok and stir fry until cooked through.

My 4 year old boy loves these. My husband says they are too dry on their own and you need a pouch/jar of sauce. Personally I eat them as they are. You can also try them with chicken strips. They both have a lovely fresh taste without any nasty additives and salt that jar sauces/marinades have.
