This is a tasty dish which can be served with either crusty bread, pasta or rice. Frying steak if very lean, and contains iron and protein to refuel those muscles after a tough workout. Brocolli is one of the cruciferous vegetables, and contains anti-cancer compounds, as well as great antioxidents. Red peppers contain good amounts of vitamin C, which help to disperse muscle fatigue, and peppers are tasty.

Mushrooms contain B vitamins which help the nervous system, and actual prebiotics, which boost the levels of good bacteria in the gut. Onions are extremely nutritious and help to reduce the bad cholesterol levels, as well as boosting the good levels, kill off bacteria which can cause infections, reduce the diabetes risk and even reduce certain types of cancer. Overall, although this meal is fried, olive oil contains essential fatty acids (EFA’s) which actually help to burn off the bad saturated fats in the body.

Serves 2-4 people.

Ingredients:

  • 200 g frying steak
  • brocolli
  • 1 onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornflour
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 red pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 10 mushrooms More >
