Ingredients

  • 4cm/1 ½ in piece of ginger
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp mirin
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 tbsp chopped pineapple
  • 2 tsp red chilli flakes or Korean chilli powder
  • 3 tbsp golden caster sugar
  • 3 tsp sesame oil

  • 1 large onion, cut into half moons
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Method

  1. Put the ginger, soy, mirin, garlic, pineapple, chilli flakes, sugar and 1 tsp of the sesame oil in a food processor and blend until fine. Pour the marinade into a bowl, add the meat, mix well and leave to sit while you prepare the onion.

  2. Heat the remaining sesame oil in a large wok or frying pan until very hot. Add the onion and stir-fry for a few mins. Add the beef and the marinade, stirring constantly until it’s cooked through, about 5 mins. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve with rice and chopped spring onions.
