Young ginger with beef & figs

The young gingers that I had dug up, with light colour skin, have mild flavour and crunchy texture, commonly used in a stir-fry dish with beef and pineapple. Since I do not have pineapple, I use earlier made fig compote instead.

 

1. Cut beef into strips, season with salt, soy sauce, black pepper and a little corn starch. Cut young ginger into thin slices, parsley leaves into small pieces.

2. With some oil, cook ginger for 10 seconds, then add beef, spreading the strips evenly on the pan, turn and sear the other side.

3. Add in fig compote, mix well and lastly parsley.
