  1. Marinate the beef: Put the beef in a medium non-metallic bowl and cover with the vinegar, soy and Worcestershire sauce. Leave to marinate for 20 minutes, or if you have the time, overnight.
  2. Stir fry: Heat a small dry wok until it's very hot. Tip in the beef, marinade and spring onions, stir fry for 2 minutes. Add the roasted peppers, then stir fry for a further 2 minutes. Divide the stir fry between shallow bowls and serve with some boiled rice.

    I love this dish. In actual fact, I don't get to cook it anymore - my partner took over on this one. Shows just how easy it is, if he can cook this! ;-) Best if you marinate the beef two / three days in advanced. Helps soak up the flavour! Instead of the rice, we use straight-to-the-wok noodles. And instead of the roasted anitpasto peppers, we normally buy the big sweet red peppers. Just yummy!

    Very tasty. I added some pak choi which provides a succulent added texture. If I make it again, I think I might drain off and reserve the marinade and add the drained beef to the hot wok so that it cooks for 1-2 minutes. Then add the reserved marinade.

    I doubled the marinade to make the whole thing a bit juicier and it worked well, I'll probably try another veg as well next time, something to give it a bit of crunch. Very nice flavour.

    This has become a weeknight staple in our house! If you like spice, add peppadew peppers instead of the antipasto ones. Yum!

    Tasty and easy. Recommend you use the peppers in oil rather than vinegar.

    Really nice and quick. I do up the amounts of sauce ingredients otherwise it can be a bit dry.

    I have a jar of Roasted Red peppers, does anyone think it would be ok to use these instead of Antipasto, or are they the same thing anyway, i dont want to sound silly.....x
