He mixes the contents of the bowl to make sure the beef is fully coated in the sauce and flour and sets aside. 

‘In a hot wok with some oil fry off the onions, ginger, chilli, lemongrass, spring onion and garlic,’ Morgan continued in the clip, sautéing until the onion is soft and sets aside. 

He then adds the marinated beef to the wok and fries on both sides until golden brown then returns the onion to the pan along with cooked noodles and sautés to combine. 

Morgan said you only need to marinade the beef for the time it takes to sauté the onions but for maximum flavour, set aside for an hour.
