Ingredients:
2 teaspoons cornflour
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon black bean sauce
1 tablespoon hot chilli sauce
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
500g beef rump steak, trimmed, very thinly sliced
1 medium brown onion, cut into wedges
1 cup of green beans.
10 broccoli florets, halved
1 garlic clove, crushed
2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, grated

Method:
1: Whisk cornflour and soy sauce together until combined and smooth, then stir in chilli sauce, black bean sauce, and chicken stock.
2: Heat up a wok over medium-high heat, and pour in 1 tablespoon of peanut oil, coating the pan. Divide beef into 4, and cook each batch for 1-2 minutes until browned, removing from the pan and placing aside after each batch.
3: Add soba noodles to a pot of boiling water and cook for a few minutes until soft. Drain, and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
4: Add remaining ½ tablespoon oil to the wok, and heat. Stir fry the onion for 2 mins until soft, and then add green beans and broccoli. Add brown onion. Stir-fry for 2 minutes or until softened. Add garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes or until vegetables are just tender.
5: Return beef and juices to wok with the vegetables, then pour in sauce mixture. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until sauce boils and thickens. Add spring onion and soba noodles and cook for 1-2 mins, tossing to combine.
