Peanut beef stir fry

I made a really easy yet tasty satay beef stir fry the other day. I love peanut butter / satay sauce dishes and this one was perfect for all the family. I tend to buy the no added salt peanut butter.

Funnily, the only peanut butter thing I don't like is those Reese cupcakes but everyone else seems to rave about them!!

Satay beef stir fry

This recipe is adapted from the Satay Beef Stir-Fry recipe in the Woman's Weekly Sensational Stir-Fries cookbook - have to say there are some great stir fries in there!

Ingredients
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 can coconut milk
1 onion, chopped finely
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground tumeric
500g beef steak, cubed
6 mushrooms, sliced
handful frozen peas
4 spring onions, chopped
Straight to wok noodles

Method:
1. In a small saucepan, add the peanut butter, half the soy sauce, garlic, coconut milk and stir over a low heat until mixed together & heated through.
2. In a small chopper (or by hand), mix the onion, remaining soy sauce and spices until smooth.
3. Heat some oil in a large pan or wok and stir fry the beef and onion paste until the beef is browned.
4. Add the peanut butter sauce and the vegetables and cook on a low heat for 10 minutes.
5. Add the straight to wok noodles and serve as soon as they're ready.
