Sweet n Sour Beef with Noodles

Here’s one of our family favourites that I’ve been making for years, and just recently converted to the Thermomix.  If you’re not too much into ‘sweet’ and ‘beef’ together, don’t worry, it’s not too sweet – it’s very savoury, rich and flavoursome.  It takes a little longer to cook than most Thermomix meals, but you don’t have to watch it – you can go do something else while your dinner cooks itself! 

I serve this on wholemeal spelt spaghetti or fettucine – if you have the time to make your own noodles, it tastes even better! Or if you’re gluten free, you can serve it on gf spaghetti/fettucini. We also like it with raw vegetable ‘noodles’ made with a spiralizer.

Serves at least six.

Note: You can find Fine sea salt and Aussie Kibble Pepper for this recipe in my online store!
