Instructions

Prep the Veg
1

Trim and peel the carrots. Use the peeler to peel long ribbons down the length of the carrot, stopping at the core.

Trim the courgette. Use a peeler to peel long ribbons down the length of the courgette, stopping at the spongy centre.

Prep More Veg
2

Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).

Juice one half of the lime and cut the other half into wedges.

Cut the sugar snap peas into 3 pieces.

Prep the Beef
3

Cut the beef into 2cm chunks. (Reserve the juice in the packet to add later.)

Boil a full kettle.

Boil the Eggs
4

Pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.

Boil the eggs (see pantry) for 7-8 mins. Drain and allow to cool. IMPORTANT: Ensure egg whites are fully cooked.

Meanwhile, boil a half-full kettle.

 

Add the Veg
5

Meanwhile, place a large saucepan on medium-high heat, no oil. Add the boiled water (see pantry), Asian broth paste and lemongrass, ginger and garlic paste.

Bring to a simmer then add the beef and reserved juices. Use a wooden spoon to break up the beef as it cooks. Simmer until cooked, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Ensure the beef is piping hot throughout.

Once the beef has warmed through, add the sugar snap peas and simmer, 1 min. Add the carrot and courgette ribbons and simmer until softened, 1 min.

Remove from the heat, stir the lime juice into the broth and season with salt and pepper.
