1

• Roughly chop cucumber. 
• Halve snacking tomatoes. 
• In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, cucumber and a drizzle of olive oil 
and vinegar. 

Cook the beef
2
  • In a medium bowl, combine Middle Eastern seasoning and beef strips.
  • Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • When oil is hot, cook beef strips, tossing, in batches until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes. 
  • Return all beef to the pan and add garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Remove pan from heat. Add the honey, turning beef to coat. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.

Microwave the rice

Review summary

Updated on Oct 2026
  • Flavour: The combination of warm spiced beef and rice with a fresh salad worked well, making for a nutritious and filling meal.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and simple to put together, with minimal hands-on cooking time.
  • Suggestions: If you are not keen on garlic sauce, the dish can feel a little mild without it — consider adding extra seasoning or a squeeze of lemon to boost the flavour.
