Udon Noodle Beef

Wok cooked dinners are usually an easy way to create a tasty meal with a nice savoury sauce and a range of tasty ingredients.  The wok allows the dinner to be made quickly with very little cleanup.  They are great for hectic week nights when you just want something simple.

The beef is initially browned in the wok before being simmered in a ginger, hoisin, soy & stock sauce.  The japanese Udon Noodles & tomato slices are tossed through towards the end before garnishing with coriander.  The tomato adds a juicy sweetness to the tasty savoury sauce.  A simple, easy to make wok cooked meal.
