Ingredients

400g rump steak, thinly sliced
3tbsp soy sauce
2tbsp soft brown sugar
1tbsp chilli sauce
1tbsp rice wine vinegar
2tsp vegetable oil
thumb-sized piece ginger, cut into fine matchsticks
4 spring onions, cut into 3cm lengths
200g pineapple, cut into chunks
handful coriander leaves, to serve
rice and greens, to serve (optional)

Steps:

Mix the steak, soy sauce, sugar, chilli sauce and vinegar together, and set aside for 10 mins.
Heat a wok with 1 tsp of the oil. Lift the steak from the marinade and sear, in batches, then remove. Add a bit more oil and fry the ginger until golden. Add the spring onions and pineapple, and return the steak to the pan. Stir to heat through for 1 min, then add any remaining marinade. Keep stirring until the marinade becomes thick and everything is hot. Serve sprinkled with coriander, and with rice and greens, if you like.
