Japanese Chopped Steak Recipes

JAPANESE-STYLE STEAK ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil; add the scallions and cook until wilted, about 45 seconds. Remove with tongs to a colander to cool, then pat dry. Add the broccoli to the boiling water and cook until just beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
• Heat 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the peanuts and half each of the ginger and garlic; cook, stirring, until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pound the beef until 1/8 inch thick. Lay 2 pieces next to each other, overlapping slightly; season with salt and pepper. Top with a quarter of the scallions, laying them crosswise. Roll up the meat around the scallions; secure with toothpicks. Repeat to make 3 more rolls.
• Add the asparagus, any remaining scallions and the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the broccoli; season with salt and pepper and toss. Mix the hoisin sauce, soy sauce and remaining ginger and garlic in a bowl.
• Oil the grill grates. Brush the steak rolls with half the sauce. Cover and grill, turning and brushing with the remaining sauce halfway through, until charred, 7 to 8 minutes. Grill the vegetables until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Halve the steak rolls, remove the toothpicks and serve with the vegetables. Top with the peanut mixture.

JAPANESE CHOPPED STEAK

Steps:

• In a large sauté pan, heat the oil with 1 tablespoon of butter, and carmelize onions by frying on med low heat for 15-20 minutes until browned but not blackened.
• While onions are frying, mix meat, breadcrumbs, milk, eggs and salt and pepper, and gently mix.
• When onions are done, allow them to cool enough to handle, and add 3/4 to the beef mixture, and work them inches Form 6 patties, roughly 6 ounces each.
• Wipe the fry pan, add the remaining butter, and cook the patties until nicely browned. Remove to a warmed plate.
• Add the remaining onions and your flour of choice and let them cook for a minute or two while you are stirring it around. Add the curry powder, stir once or twice to break out the spice flavors, and then add the water, ketchup, sake, and soy, stirring the entire time until the sauce comes to a boil and thickens. Make sure to use your wooden spoon to scrape up all the goodies from the bottom of the pan. Taste and adjust the seasoning by either adding more soy or salt depending on what you think it needs. If it is too thick, add water a 1/4 cup at a time, stirring between additions.
• Add the cooked patties back to the gravy to warm them up, and serve immediately with your choice of side dishes.
