Beef Chow Mein

This is my lovely cousin Helen's creation, who has been helping me smash out the BARE meals! Beef Chow Mein with cabbage is a beautiful Chinese inspired recipe that is SO delicious (and even better for leftovers the next day!) It's a super quick and easy dinner that the whole family can enjoy and great way to use up leftover beef mince. I love using thin hokkien noodles but you could also use rice instead.
