This evening, I had the easiest, quickest and most wonderful stirfry EVAR!
My organic box contained this giant red pepper which was wonderfully juicy and sweet:

It was nice and ripe and as I won't be home over the weekend, I needed to use it right away. I wanted a bit more substance so picked up a sirloin steak which I cut into strips and marinated in soy sauce, chilli oil and white pepper while the rice was boiling.
Making the stirfry itself took not more than 5 minutes: First the beef strips, then the aromatics (sliced onion, garlic and ginger) and just a minute before the end, the sliced pepper. Seasoned slightly with soy sauce and sesame oil, letting the flavours of the meat and veg do the talking. The rice was spot on again!
It looked like this:



Look at the size of that thing!

That's one of our normal weekly meals too (except we normally have noodles instead of rice...).

Might also be worth throwing some spring onions into the stir fry for the last few minutes so they are still crispy when you serve.

*nods* I usually prefer spring onions but this was done quickly with what I had available.
Bah, I want a food market near work. :o(
