Ingredients

  • 200g Chinese cabbage
  • 1pcs carrot
  • 1pcs spring onion
  • 1clove garlic
  • 10ml sesame oil
  • 40g slivered almonds
  • 300g beef stir-fry
  • 23ml white vinegar
  • 15ml vegetable oil
  • 15ml soy sauce
  • 5ml honey

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep ingredients
    Thinly slice the cabbage. Shred the carrot using a julienne peeler or coarsely grate with a box grater. Thinly slice the spring onion on an angle. Crush or finely chop 1 garlic clove.
  2. Step 2 — Make dressing
    Put the garlic, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1½ tbs white vinegar, 1 tbs vegetable oil, 3 tsp soy sauce, 1 tsp honey and a pinch of pepper in a large bowl and stir to combine.       
  3. Step 3 — Toast almonds
    Put the almonds in a cold medium frypan over medium heat. Toast, tossing, for 3-4 mins until golden. Remove from the pan.  
  4. Step 4 — Cook beef
    Separate the beef stir-fry and season with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining sesame oil in the same pan over high heat until very hot (see Kitchen 101). Stir-fry the beef for 1-2 mins until browned. Remove from the pan.
  5. Step 5 — Serve up
    Meanwhile, add the cabbage, carrot and spring onion to the dressing and toss to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper. Divide the salad among bowls, top with the beef, scatter with the almonds and enjoy!
  6. Step 6 — Kitchen 101
    Ensuring the pan is really hot before adding the beef prevents it from stewing and gives it a nice browned finish.
