Black Bean Beef Recipe Ingredients

Method

1. Firstly rehydrate the beans. Add the hot water into a bowl with the black beans and set aside.
2. Mix all the seasoning ingredients together and set aside.
3. Add all the marinade seasonings to the beef and set aside for 15 to 20 mins.
4. Slice the onion, red and green pepper into nice big 1 ½ inch chunks.
5. In a hot pan, add some oil, then the garlic and the drained black beans. Stir fry for a minute until the flavours and aromas are released. Set aside. Be careful not to over fry the black bean as this will make the sauce taste slightly bitter.
6. Add some more oil into the pan, then add the beef and stir fry for 4 – 5 minutes and set aside.
7. Next stir fry the onion and the peppers with some oil for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are soft but still a little crunchy. Add the garlic and black bean mixture. Next the seasoning mix and stir fry for 1 minute before adding the beef. Mix well.
8. Slowly add the cornstarch mix to thicken the sauce and then it's ready to serve.
