tomato beef

about time for a recipe post. i cooked this the other night - recipe from martin yan's 'chinatown cooking - 200 recipes from 11 chinatowns across the world. i recommend it'.

thinly slice beef and marinate in 1 tbspn cornflour, 1tbspn oyster sauce, 1 tbspn soy sauce, 2 tspns whisky (I used bourbon...), 1 tspn minced garlic.

prepare the sauce by mixing 1/4 cup tomato sauce, 1 1/2 tspns chinese rice wine or dry sherry, 1 tspn soy sauce, 1/2 tspn worcestershire sauce, 1 tspn sugar.

stir fry beef in oil and remove from wok. stir fry your veg of choice (he uses onion, celery, green capsiucm, button mushrooms.

add sauce and 1-2 tomatoes cut into wedges. add beef and bring to boil.

simple. very tasty.  i love tomato in asian dishes.
