Szechuan Beef Slimming world friendly Recipe

Anyone who knows me knows how much i love food!! I am currently following the slimming world plan as calorie counting and portion control isn't for me at all, i gain weight easilyand very quickly when my body isn't playing the game but this plan if i stick to it works even if it's only 1/2lb a week, it's 1/2lb off and not on. Anyways one of my all time fave foods is Chinese and luckily i have a Chinese Uncle that is an amazing chef who i have been lucky to learn from over the years and adapt what i have learnt into Slimming world friendly recipes. I love beef and especially Chinese style and am really into szechuan so i decided to share my recipe with you.

What you will need..........

Frying Steak

3 Spring Onions

1 Onion Sliced

75ml Beef Stock

1tsp Sesame oil (2syns)

Frozen peas

1 Green Pepper

2tsp Szechuan peppercorns Whole

2 Garlic Cloves

1tsp soy sauce

1tbsp Artificial sweetener

Rice

To start off prep your ingredients......

Start by cooking your rice as you do or instructed. Then begin the prep (my lovely man does mine for me as i can't use knives without injury) by peeling and slicing the onion, roughly chop the spring onions, chop the pepper, crush the peppercorns, make up the stock and add the soy sauce to it and cut the beef into thin strips trimming all the fat off. Chinese cooking is usually very quick in beginning to end cooking process so it's better to have your ingredients ready to go.

Add your oil to the pan and heat until smoking then add the garlic to brown off.

Add the strips of beef and cook for 4 mins on a high heat constantly stirring.

Crush the szechuan peppercorns ready to add while the beef is cooking.

Add the onions and cook for another 2 mins.

Add the crushed peppercorns, peas, peppers and spring onion and cook for 1 min

Add the stock and boil for 2 mins 

Lastly add the sweetener and stir in then cook for 1 min then serve on a bed of rice and enjoy...

This dish is just  2 syns for the whole lot of it, win win situation!
