Peking Beef

Note this recipe is a bit saucier than what you would get from a chinese shop.

Ingredients:
500 -600 g stir-fry beef
2 tablespoons peanut oil

Marinade:
4 teaspoons hoisin sauce
4 teaspoons five-spice powder
4 tablespoons honey
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons sesame oil
4 tablespoons dry sherry
2 tablespoons cornflour

Directions:
Mix all of the marinade ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Make sure you mix them well.
Put meat into mixture and cover. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Heat frying pan over medium heat. Add oil. When oil is hot add marinaded meat. Leave frypan at medium heat until beef is cooked.
When meat is cooked turn the frying pan down to a simmer. Sauce should start to thicken up within 10 minutes.
If you are still not happy with the consistency you can add a bit more corn flour. Remember to mix it with water first.
