SLOW COOKER STICKY BEEF STIR FRY

A simple and delicious dish that combines diced beef with a sweet and slightly spicy sauce. This dish is cooked perfectly in a slow cooker, making the beef incredibly tender and allowing the flavours to mix. Served with noodles, this dish is a fantastic choice for a fuss-free, satisfying meal. The combination of sweet chili sauce, honey, soy sauce, and cider vinegar creates a well-balanced and savoury-sweet sauce that coats the beef and infuses it with a delicious flavour.

Ingredients-

  • 400g diced beef

  • 1 tbsp cornflour

  • 4 tbsp dark soy sauce

  • 4 tbsp sweet chili sauce

  • 2 tbsp cider vinegar

  • 4 tbsp honey

  • 200ml water

  • 2 garlic cloves, grated

  • 1 chopped pepper

  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)

  • Noodles (for serving)

Instructions-

  1. In a bowl, coat the diced beef with cornflour to help thicken the sauce as it cooks.

  3. Add the coated beef to the sauce mixture in the slow cooker.

  4. Cook on high for 6 hours or on low for 8-10 hours. For more tender beef, it's recommended to use the low setting. If using the high setting, consider cutting the beef into smaller pieces, around 1cm cubes.
