Here is a recipe to boost your iron levels. Beef and spinach are both high in iron and make a quick and tasty stir-fry. If you start cooking the rice or pasta before you start stir-frying, dinner will be on the table in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients:
• 2 tbsp sunflower or olive oil
• 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 1½ cups thinly sliced cremini mushrooms
• 8oz filet mignon or boneless sirloin steak, trimmed and cut in thin strips
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves, washed and dried
• 2⁄3 cup beef stock
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tsp light brown sugar
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 2 tsp water
• 1 tbsp soy sauce, or to taste
Ingredients for Serving:
• 2⁄3 cup rice or 1 cup fusilli pasta, cooked
• according to package directions 1 scallion, shredded (optional)
Preparation:
1. Heat half of the oil in a wok or large frying pan, add the onion, and stir-fry until it starts to brown, 4–5 minutes. Add the garlic and mushrooms to the wok and stir-fry until the mushrooms are cooked through and turning golden at the edges, 4–5 minutes. Spoon the mushrooms and onions into a bowl and set aside.
2. Heat the remaining oil in the wok. Add the steak and stir-fry until browned, 2–3 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until it has wilted, 1–2 minutes, then return the cooked mushrooms and onions to the wok. Add the stock, oyster sauce, sugar, and cornstarch blended with the water. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, 1–2 minutes.
3. Add the soy sauce, then taste and add a little more, if needed. Serve spooned over rice or pasta, garnished with the scallion, if using.
