Crispy Chilli Beef

Crispy Chilli Beef

Technically the Beef Fillet would have pushed this well over budget, but these were part of my birthday present from my mum, so we thought we’d make something tasty with them. Oh was it tasty?

Tomato Puree
Seasoned Flour (Gluten free in our case), with Chilli Flakes, Paprika, Garlic Salt, Pepper
Oil to fry
Cider Vinegar.
Margarine
Salt & Pepper
Sugar
Rice Noodles (These are presently on offer at the local Supermarket at 60p a pack)

Method:-

(1) Stir the beef strips in the seasoned Flour.
(2) Fry until crispy and set aside in the oven on a low heat to keep warm.
(3) Fry the Onion and Garlic in Margarine and Oil until soft.
(4) Add the tin of Tomatoes and an equal amount of Water.
(5) Add a good squirt of Tomato Puree.
(6) Simmer for 10 minutes.

We served ours with a few fresh fried Papadums. The ingredient quantities are pretty flexible, so you can adjust the heat to your taste.
