The meat
You can use steak or chicken I used both this time as had a little of both in the freezer.
To make the spices
1 red or green chilli 1/2 teaspoon chili powder1/2 teaspoon cumin 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes A clove of garlic crushed 1 tsp. red paprika1 tsp.Mustard seeds
Dry fry the mustard seeds for 1 minutes and add to a food processor with the remaining ingredients and pulse until they are all mixed together.
slice the beef or chicken into strips and add the spices and give it a good mix around so all the meat is covered and place to one side.
Time to cook up
Heat a couple of tbsp oil in two pan. Throw in the chicken or steak and quickly brown all over, cook for a 10 minutes until cooked though the beef should not take as long but I suppose it up to you on how you want the steak cooked I like mine pink.
In the second pan add the onion and peppers to the pan and cook until softened.
