Ingredients

1 kiwi fruit or 1 small pear, peeled
800 g beef eye fillet, sliced 3–4 mm thick
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (Chinese cooking wine)

Method

For serving: oak leaf lettuce leaves, cooked jasmine rice, thinly sliced long red chillies, lime wedges

  1. Place the kiwi fruit or pear into the bowl of a mini food processor and blitz until it forms a paste. Toss the paste through the beef and allow to stand for 10 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the garlic, soy sauce, sesame and peanut oil, Shaoxing wine, brown sugar and pepper. Stir through the beef and marinate for 30 minutes.
