Рецепт Chinese Beef and Tomatoes
When I used to work in Hong Kong before lunch on styroboxes was one of my regular meal, it’s quite easy to order too as you only given four meat options and three sauce options which in total makes 12 different dishes but they only need to prepare four things. Meat choices are beef, chicken, pork and fish while the sauces are corn, tomato and black pepper. One of my favourite ones are the fish and corn, beef and black pepper and this recipe today beef and tomatoes.
If you closely look at the dish it looks similar to the Western beef stewed in tomato but there is one big difference, this is not stewed, it is stir fried eventually making the cooking time drastically faster which can take a maximum of 15 minutes. It gives a different taste and effect as well as this one tends to be on the sweeter side and goes really well with rice and some simple Asian greens on the side.
