Instructions
• Thickly slice leek. • Drain sweetcorn. • Roughly chop baby leaves. • Discard any liquid from beef strips packaging.
• In a medium bowl, combine mild Caribbean jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • Add beef strips and toss to coat
• Boil the kettle. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with boiling water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain and return to the pan with the butter and chicken-style stock powder. Stir to combine.
• Return the frying pan to 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. Transfer to a plate.
TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
