Beef Flank And Ginger Simmered In Caramel Sauce Recipes

BEEF WITH SCALLIONS, TOMATO, AND GINGER

Steps:

• Cut the beef against the grain into thin strips about 2 inches long (by 1/4-inch thick). In a large bowl, whisk together the sherry, soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and sugar. Add the beef and mix well. Set aside.
• Preheat a large non-stick skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil and heat until very hot. Add the scallion whites and beef mixture to the skillet, arrange it in a single layer, and cook, without stirring, until well-browned on the bottom and still pinkish inside, about 1 minute. (It is key to only partially cook the meat at this stage, since it will be finish cooking later in the sauce.) Transfer to a bowl.
• Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining oil. Add the ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute (only a few seconds if using young ginger). Add the scallion greens and tomatoes and cook until slightly softened and saucy, and tomato skin begins to wrinkle, about 1 minute. Return the beef and any collected juice to the skillet, add the hoisin sauce, and cook, stirring, until thick, about 30 seconds more. Season, to taste. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately with rice.

BEEF FLANK AND GINGER SIMMERED IN CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• To form the rolls, first look at the beef closely to figure out how best to cut four 1/2-pound pieces. In general, it is easier to manage pieces 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick and about 5 inches long. If the meat is a single thick piece, use your knife to separate it into 2 pieces, cutting along one of the layers of tough membranes, before dividing again to arrive at 4 pieces. If the meat is in more than 1 piece, the thickness is determined for you.
• After cutting the meat, pat each piece dry again with paper towels to make it easier to handle. Roll 1 piece with the grain so that the tough membrane forms the outside of the roll. Use kitchen string to secure the roll at regular intervals along its length. Repeat with the remaining pieces.
• Select a saucepan in which the rolls will fit snugly in a single layer. Arrange half the ginger coins flat on the bottom. Put the rolls on top. Scatter the remaining ginger coins over the rolls and pour in the fish sauce. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook for 5 minutes to develop the flavors.
• Uncover, add the caramel sauce and water to cover, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Use a spoon to skim and discard any scum that rises to the surface, then cover, lower the heat to a simmer, and cook for 1 hour. Uncover and continue to cook, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer, for 1 hour longer, or until the beef is tender. To test for doneness, press your finger against the meat; it should give but feel firm, like the flesh at the base of your thumb. (If making the dish in advance, remove from the heat at this point, let cool, then cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove as much of the fat congealed on top as desired before reheating and continuing.)
• Transfer the rolls to a plate and set aside to cool until warm and firm, which will make them much easier to slice. Return the sauce to a boil and reduce to about 3/4 cup reddish brown liquid. Skim off some of the fat from the surface (if you haven't refrigerated the dish overnight and skimmed it already) and then taste the sauce to make sure it has a good deep flavor. If it isn't flavorful enough, continue to reduce it. If it is too strong, lighten it with a splash of water.
• To serve, snip and remove the string from each roll. Slice the rolls into 1/8- to 1/4-inch-thick spirals and arrange on 2 warmed plates. (Because the meat isn't hot when served, warming the plates is important.) Reheat the sauce, if necessary, and then spoon it over the meat. Put the ginger coins in a small separate dish for anyone who wants a sharp, spicy bite. Before serving, check the beef to make sure it is warm. If necessary, pop the plates into a microwave oven to reheat. Serve immediately.
