This recipe is loosely based off my Beef San Choy Bow recipe posted in 2014 but revamped with some new flavours. What I love about this dish is you can serve it as is, in lettuce cups, over steamed rice or alongside some delicious steamed veggies. It is so versatile (and SO delicious!). This is great served hot or cold! I love it cold the next day served with salad veggies.

I have cooked this in a large wok but utelised my thermomixer for some of the chopping. The reason for this is I prefer the final result. If you are wanting a TMX method for this, my Beef San Choy Bow recipe can be used as a rough guide. Note: there will be a much more liquid result.

This is a quick dish. I can have this on the table in 30 minutes so it is perfect for weeknights or those days you just want something easy ( so basically every night!).
