Ingredients
  • 1 Lemon
  • 2 tablespoons Oil
  • 500 g Beef fillet (thinly sliced
Directions
  1. 1
    Wash the chokos under running cold water, peel them, and discard the core. Cut into cubes and drop into boiling salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and cool.
  2. 2
    Cut the Nashi pears into cubes similar in size to the choko cubes. Squeeze lemon juice over the Nashi to prevent browning and combine with the cooked chokos. Set aside.
  3. 3
    Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry the beef fillet strips for a couple of minutes until browned. Cook in several batches if necessary to ensure proper browning. Remove beef with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  4. 4
    In the same wok with the remaining oil and juices, add spring onions, garlic, ginger, and macadamia halves. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. 5
    In a small bowl, combine cold water, corn flour, soy sauce, and chili sauce. Whisk until smooth.
  6. 6
    Pour the sauce mixture into the wok. Return the beef to the pan and stir continuously until the sauce thickens.
  7. 7
    Add the choko and Nashi pear mixture to the wok. Stir gently just to combine everything. Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds.
