Method

  1. Mix the steak, soy sauce, sugar, chilli sauce and vinegar together, and set aside for 10 mins.
  2. 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.

    Very easy, but really tasty. I didn't have chilli sauce so I added a chopped chilli instead, and I also added some french beans. I shall definitely make this again!

    Not made this yet but hope to because it looks great. Questions - does it matter if you use red or white rice wine vinegar? Do you mean sweet chilli sauce?

    Lovely - next time I would add more ginger, slightly less pineapple (which I would cut into slightly smaller pieces).

    i found that frying the beef in batches meant that the marinade/sauce left in the pot started to burn, perhap an error on my part but on the whole quite disappointed with this receipe.
