Sizzling paprika beef with peppers and broccoli

Ingredients

  1. 2 x 320g beef rump steaks, cut into thin strips
  2. 3 tbsp kecap manis (from Sainsbury’s and Asian food shops), plus extra for drizzling
  3. 300g tenderstem broccoli
  4. 2 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil
  5. 1 red onion, finely sliced
  6. 1 red pepper, finely sliced
  7. 1 yellow pepper, finely sliced
  8. 1 red chilli, thinly sliced
  9. 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  10. 1 tbsp hot smoked paprika
  11. Small handful fresh coriander leaves, to serve

Method

  1. 1. Put the steak in a bowl and toss well with the kecap manis. Set aside for 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
  2. 2. Bring a medium pan of water to the boil, add the broccoli and cook for a few minutes until just tender. Drain and arrange the broccoli in a serving dish.
  3. 3. Place a heavy-based frying pan or wok over a high heat, add the oil and heat until smoking. Swiftly add the onion and peppers and toss in the pan for just a few minutes until they are beginning to soften.
  4. 4. Sprinkle over the chilli, garlic and paprika and quickly toss together. Add the steak and any marinade in the bowl and continue to cook for just 2 minutes until the steak is browned and cooked, adding about 3-4 tbsp water towards the end of cooking.
  5. 5. Spoon the pan contents over the broccoli, including all the pan juices, scatter with coriander and serve immediately with rice and extra kecap manis to drizzle over.

Chef's tip

Kecap manis is a thick Indonesian soy sauce, fantastic as an instant marinade to flavour meat. It gives a deliciously caramelised, sticky finish and mixes well in many dishes.
