Fiery Chinese spiced beef sauce with Wild basmati rice

Fiery Siracha, honey and Chinese spice is a great combination for a stir fry or sauce to serve with Wild basmati or Jasmine rice. This spicy sauce is super to create with whatever veg and protein you have in the fridge. I usually have a few vegetables like mangetout, carrots, and onions. I sometimes have left over boiled beef and use this in stir-fry, alternatively you can use stripped pieces. What makes this so delicious is the sweet and spicy combination and how versatile this is to use up vegetables and brighten up your plate. These Asian spices and ingredients will become staples in your cupboard if they aren't already, as they will be used in flavourful and easy cooking. As always, another super quick to cook and a good option for either packed lunch or dinner for an individual, couple, or larger group. Can be served on its own as a meal or with some prawn crackers.
