- 300g (12oz) white rice

Cook the rice according to the packet instructions. Crack the egg into a small bowl and whisk with a fork. Once the rice is cooked, drain it and then place it back into a saucepan. Pour the egg into the rice and stir through. Add the peas and a tablespoon of soy sauce. Cover with a lid and leave to stand. Place the wok on a medium heat. Place the slices of beef in a bowl along with the five-spice powder and mix well. Add a little vegetable oil to the wok and quickly stir-fry the beef until it starts to brown. Then add the garlic, ginger and chilli, and stir for a second before adding the carrot, mange tout and onion. Lastly, add the mushrooms and red pepper. Add a splash of soy sauce and the honey, tossing everything together. Finally stir in the chopped coriander. Serve with the rice.
