4 meals arrived and we were very impressed with the choice
The idea was to get the kids involved which we did
But as it turns out a lot of Grandma time was needed too, did this one on my own
Vietnamese Style Beef Strips with Coconut Rice
This recipe fed 5 of us, with leftovers for lunch the next day
Perfect... thumbs up from the Family
I have made a couple of slight changes in the method
e.g. the vege and the rice
other than that I followed the recipe
Olive oil
600 gms sliced beef
Big knob ginger
4 cloves garlic peeled
4 lime leaves finely sliced
Soy sauce - 1/3 cup
Sweet Chili sauce - 100 gms
Red onion finely sliced
Rice wine vinegar - 1/2 cup
Water - 1/2 cup
Sugar. Large pinch
Salt - Large pinch
Carrots 🥕 2
Broccoli 🥦 1 head
Roasted peanuts 🥜 handful
Rice
1 1/2 cups Jasmine Rice
1 400 ml tin of coconut milk
Water
Sea salt 2 tsps
To Prepare the Beef
Grate the ginger and garlic
In a medium bowl add ginger, garlic, soy sauce, Chili sauce and lime leaves
Add beef strips and set aside to marinate
To Pickle the Onion
Add sliced onion, vinegar, water and a pinch each of salt and sugar
Scrunch the onion in your hands and leave aside
To Prepare The Vegetable
Slice the carrots and cut the broccoli into small florets
Bring a big pot of salted water to the boil
Add the vegetables and blanch. (Bring back to the boil and simmer for about 2 minutes)
Drain and set aside
( you can prep the beef and the vege to this point, earlier if you wish)
When you are ready to go
Place the Coconut Milk in a large measuring jug
Top up to 3 1/4 cups with water
Place in pot and bring to the boil
Add the rice, bring it back to the boil
Stir well cover and lower the heat
Let simmer for about 10-12 minutes
Check… it should have absorbed the liquid
Stir to fluff up and set aside , Cover to keep warm
Heat a large pan to medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Add blanched vege
Season with Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Toss and sauté till just cooked
Remove and place in a bowl, keep warm
Wind up the heat in the pan and add the marinated beef
Cook until just browned 1-2 minutes
In a large serving dish
Place cooked fluffed up rice
Cover with the vegetables
Add the cooked beef
Serve with the side dishes of onions and peanuts
An excellent dinner
Thank you Hello Fresh
