Thai Chili Pepper Beef

Ingredients
- 750g (1.6 pounds) of rump steak cut into strips
- 2-3 cloves of garlic minced
- 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
- 1-2tbsp thai red curry paste
- 1 onion cut into wedges(I used 2 as they were fairly small onions)
- 1 green bell pepper chopped
- 1 red bell pepper chopped (color doesn't really matter its just for presentation)
- baby sweetcorn (use canned if preferred)
- 220g (7.7 ounces) can of bamboo shoots
- 1 tbsp fish sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 125 ml (4 ounces) beef stock
- 2-3 Birdseye chillies
- oil
- can of water chestnuts (this is optional, I just like them)
Step 1
Place the strips of beef, the minced garlic, the grated ginger, the chopped chillies and curry paste into a bowl and give it a good mix around.
Step 2
This is the mess you will end up with: If you are using fresh sweetcorn, you can cook it quickly by putting it in a bowl with 2 tbsp of water, covering with film and then put it in the microwave for about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Step 4
When it's brown take the beef out and set to the side. In the same pan you did the beef in add the wedges of onion and stir-fry for about 3 minutes over a medium heat. you may need to add a bit more oil.
Step 5
When the onions are golden add the bell peppers, corn, bamboo shoots and the water chestnuts and stir-fry for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Step 6
Now return the beef to the pan, stir in the fish sauce, the stock and the sugar(thats what that brown dollop is) give it a good stir and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Keep an eye on the level of the stock, you want to reduce it but not too much.
Step 7
When the beef is tender its time to serve, I had these snazzy wee hot platey things lying around so I decided to use them, I just love the sound of the food sizzling as it hits the hot iron.

I tried a similar kind of recipe long ago, and it tasted really good. I wonder if I could add mushrooms in this?
