Beef and Pak Choi Stir Fry

Beef and Pak Choi Stir Fry is a Korean dish I was introduced to about 25 years ago. It is still my favourite and hope you will also enjoy it. I buy large pre cooked and sliced chestnuts in a tin but pine nuts and pistachios work just as well. Served normally as a main dish but could be a side dish for 4 people. If you don’t have any noodles then serve on a bed on boiled rice.
