Chef tips
For juicy beef that doesn't stew in its own juices, make sure to sear it in small batches in a piping hot pan before you add the soya sauce and caramelised onions. Serve the bistec on a bed of white rice to soak up the lovely sauce. Use tamari for a gluten-free option; kids can help by peeling the onions or stirring the rich marinade.
