Roast Beef Sirloin With Simple Asian Sauce Recipes

ROAST BEEF SIRLOIN WITH SIMPLE ASIAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Score the fat on the beef in a criss-cross pattern. Mix together the five-spice and sugar, then season really well with salt and pepper. Rub all over the beef, then leave to marinate, preferably overnight.
• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. When ready to cook, rub the oil all over the meat. Heat a griddle pan or, if the weather is good, a barbecue. You'll need to leave the griddle pan for 10-15 mins to make sure it gets really hot. Place the meat, fat-side down, on the griddle and leave to cook for 5-10 mins until the fat starts to melt (the kitchen will probably get quite smoky so make sure you have an extractor fan turned on). Turn the meat over and cook for 5 mins more until it is well browned all over.
• Place in a roasting tin, then cook in the oven for 30 mins for rare (15-20 mins more for medium, or 30-40 mins more for well done). Cover and leave to rest for 15 mins.
• To make the sauce, trim the stalks from the coriander and place them in a pan along with the stock, garlic, ginger, oyster sauce and the white part of the spring onion. Bring to the boil, then leave to simmer and infuse for 10 mins. Strain, then chop the coriander leaves and place in the sauce along with the green spring onion slices to serve.

ASIAN BEEF STRIPS

Steps:

• Flatten each strip of steak to 1/8-in. thickness. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the onions, soy sauce, sugar, wine, garlic, sesame seeds, oil and pepper; add the beef. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Drain and discard marinade., Place beef on a small broiler pan. Broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness. Serve with rice if desired.

ASIAN STYLE BEEF ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Season meat with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium high heat, then brown the meat thoroughly on all sides.
• Remove meat to a plate and set aside.
• Add remaining oil to the Dutch oven, and saute the spring onions, garlic and ginger, until the onions have softened.
• Add the soya sauce, half of the cilantro, the chillies and the lemon grass and give it a stir or two.
• Add combined coconut milk and lime juice, and bring to the boil, stirring to incorporate all the crispy bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Return meat and accumulated juices back to the pan, and bring to a simmer.
• Cover tightly, and place in the oven.
• Cook until the meat is fork tender, approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours, making sure you turn the meat every 30 minutes.
• Lift the roast from the sauce, place on a cutting board, cover loosely with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, strain the sauce (I choose not to), then reduce over high heat if you prefer a thicker consistency.
• Carve the meat into thin slices, return to the sauce with the remainder of the chopped cilantro, and heat through gently before serving.
