Ingredients

  • 350g/12oz beef
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1½ tbsp oyster sauce
  • pinch sugar
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp groundnut oil
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 chilli
  • 200g/7oz baby spinach
  • 1 tbsp Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
  • pinch dried chilli
  • 1 tsp groundnut oil
  • 100g/3½oz oyster mushrooms
  • dash Chinese black rice vinegar
  • dash light soy sauce

Instructions

  • For the beef, place the fillet in between two sheets of cling film and bash with a meat mallet or rolling pin until half as thin. Slice the beef into thin pieces and place into a bowl, then season with the light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar and salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat a wok until smoking and add one tablespoon of the groundnut oil, then add the garlic and chilli. Stir-fry for a few seconds, then add the spinach leaves and toss for a few seconds, until warmed through. Pile onto a large serving plate.
  • Place the wok back on the heat and add the remaining oil, then add the beef slices and stir fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the beef is cooked to your liking. Pour in the Shaoxing rice wine and sprinkle over the dried chilli flakes. Pile the beef over the spinach leaves.
  • For the oyster mushrooms, heat the oil in the wok and add the oyster mushrooms, stir frying for one minute. Add a small splash of water to create some steam to help the mushrooms cook, then season, to taste, with the black rice vinegar and light soy sauce.
  • Spoon the oyster mushrooms over the beef and serve.
