BEEF IN BLACK BEAN SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the beef, bash the beef slices with a meat mallet, the side of a heavy knife or a rolling pin to flatten, then finely slice into strips. Combine the sesame oil, sugar, Chinese five-spice powder, soy sauce and cornflour in a small bowl. Place the beef in a large bowl and massage the marinade well into the meat until well covered and there is no sauce left at the bottom of the bowl.
• To make the sauce, place all of the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and mix together well.
• To make the stir fry, put the black soy beans in a small bowl or ramekin and cover with boiling water (about 2-3 tablespoons water) and leave to soak for about 10 minutes. Drain through a sieve and then crush in a pestle and mortar with the garlic and ginger until you have a coarse paste. Transfer back to the ramekin.
• Get all the remaining stir fry ingredients to hand (the stir fry is cooked very quickly so you need everything ready to add to the wok).
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok over a high heat and once smoking hot, add the onions, peppers and spring onion. Cook for 1 minute, then add the cavolo nero and continue to stir-fry for a minute. At this point, transfer the vegetables out of the wok to a bowl to make space for stir-frying the beef. Add the remaining oil to the wok and bring it back to a high heat. Once smoking hot, add the beef to the wok and press down with a spatula to separate out the pieces. Do not turn the beef too quickly, just press down to sear the pieces for 30 seconds-1 minute and then turn once and sear the other side of the beef in the same way. Once browned on both sides, add the soy bean mixture and stir-fry for 1 minute before returning the vegetables back to the wok.
• Ensure the wok is at a high heat before pouring the sauce into the wok and bringing to a vigorous boil. Boil while stirring for a further minute. Garnish with spring onion or coriander and serve immediately.
