Teriyaki Beef Lifeboats

They get this funky little name because they are served best at parties… and on NYE they saved me from falling overboard!

Shopping List - 

2 Rump/Sirloin Steaks (Rump cheaper) 
1 Red Onion
1 Red Chilli 
1 Jar Teriyaki Sauce
3 Cloves Garlic 
4 Baby Gem Lettuce heads. 
2 Nests Fine Egg Noodles

Step By Step - (Today is prep prep prep)

1. Finley chop red onion, Red Chilli and Garlic. Hold each separated in little bowls or plates. Take 1 inch off the bottom of Each Lettuce.
2. Bash Beef to thin with Rolling Pin, Then cut into 1cm strips. Get rid of any unwanted fat. Mix in a bowl with Teriyaki sauce keeping some for dipping in a small bowl.

3. Add 2 Table Spoon Red onion and a pinch of each garlic and chilli to a hot Wok and FRY for 45 Seconds
4. Add Beef mix to Pan and start cooking your noodles. 
5. Pick lettuce leaves, clean, dry then place in even rows on a wooden chopping board or a Flat oven baking tin. 
6. Strain NOODLES and coat in olive oil.
7. Chop noodles up as if your a kid then place using a fork and your fingers a small nest in each Lettuce leaf. Systematically work your way along. DONT RUSH, its all about presentation.

8. Your beef should be cooked to your liking (CHECK). Using a spoon place approx three pieces of beef and some sauce on each leaf.
9. Garnish lavishly with Red Onion, Garlic and Chilli. Keep some aside so guests can add more chilli if needed, same with teriyaki sauce! (See Top)
