• 400 gm of schnitzel or finely sliced steak
• 2 tsp cooking oil
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp sugar
• 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
• 2 tbsp sesame seeds
• 2 medium size cucumbers

Place the beef in a bowl with the oil, soy sauce, salt, sugar and cayenne. Mix thoroughly and leave for 30 mins.

Toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan and stir until golden. Crush the seeds with a mortar and pestle or rolling pin.

Peel the cucumbers leaving some strips of green on the outside. Cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds before cutting into thin slices.

Heat a dash of oil in a large fry pan or wok and when very hot add the meat until stir fry for about a minute. Add in the cucumber and cook until tender but still crisp. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and service with rice.
