ORANGE BEEF



Orange Beef image

This recipe for takeout-style orange beef is a variation on one the Brooklyn chef Dale Talde included in his new cookbook, "Asian-American: Proudly Inauthentic Recipes From the Philippines to Brooklyn," with a slightly more intensely flavored orange-flavored sauce. Mr. Talde's key insight is protected, however: Use very good steak, and cook it fast, so that below the lovely crust of its egg-white-and-cornstarch batter, the meat remains rare and luscious. Serve with steamed broccoli and white rice. And make it a few times. What appears difficult the first time through - the coating of the beef, the making of the sauce, the stir-frying of the aromatics, the stir-frying of the beef - is in fact fast and easy work, and much, much better than takeout.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon neutral oil
1 1 1/2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons orange zest, plus the juice of one orange
3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup rice vinegar (do not use seasoned rice vinegar)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pinch kosher salt
1 boneless rib-eye steak, approximately 1 to 1 1/2 pounds, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup neutral oil
6 scallions, white and green parts cut into inchlong pieces and separated
2 to 4 dried red chiles, or to taste

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Heat oil in a small sauce pan set over medium-high heat. When it begins to shimmer, add ginger, jalapeño and orange zest and stir to combine. Sauté mixture until ingredients soften, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, then add garlic and continue cooking until it softens, approximately 1 to 2 minutes longer.
  • Add orange juice, brown sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce and fish sauce to pan and stir to combine. Allow mixture to come to a boil, then lower the heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and reduces by half, approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the meat: Combine egg white, cornstarch and salt in a bowl. Add steak, tossing to coat the meat with the batter.
  • In a large skillet or wok set over high heat, heat oil until it shimmers and is about to smoke. Add beef to the pan or wok in a single layer and cook without stirring until the bottoms of the pieces are crisp and golden, approximately 60 to 90 seconds. Add white pieces of scallion and chiles to the pan, then turn the beef pieces over and cook the other sides, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer to a platter.
  • Pour orange sauce into the hot pan or wok, let it boil and stir it as it thickens. Add meat and white scallions and stir to coat with the sauce. Return meat and sauce to the platter and scatter green scallions over the top. Serve with steamed broccoli and white rice.

When it comes to getting take-out, this is my go-to. Orange-flavored crispy beef is just so yummy! This recipe beats any take-out, and what's better is that it's so easy to make.

Provided by Stuart O'Keeffe

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable oil, for frying

BEEF WITH ORANGES



Beef with Oranges image

I made this for dinner a couple of nights ago and my family cleaned the serving platter dry. It's easy to prepare and, because you use quality steak, it's good enough for company too. The next time I make it I think I will add some ginger, and perhaps something to add a little heat, like cayenne pepper or, more likely, a squirt of garlic-chili sauce. Adapted from a recipe from Martha Stewart.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Oranges

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 oranges
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce (preferably low-sodium)
1 1/2 lbs boneless sirloin steaks
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon canola oil
6 green onions

Steps:

  • Once all the ingredients are prepped and assembled, this goes very quickly, so if you're serving rice and a green vegetable on the side (as I did, I used broccoli), make sure you have all that under control before you start this.
  • First, zest one of the oranges into a small bowl, then squeeze its juice into the same bowl; add the garlic and soy into the bowl, lightly stir, then set aside.
  • A little minced fresh ginger added to the garlic mixture would be excellent, too, as would some garlic-chili sauce or a little tabasco or cayenne pepper.
  • Now take the two remaining oranges and with a sharp paring knife, peel the oranges then slice crosswise into 1/2 inch slices, then halve the slices.
  • Pick out and discard any seeds from the orange slices, then set the oranges aside.
  • This is not a recipe in which to use a lesser cut of meat, go for the sirloin or perhaps rib eye; I used new york striploin steak since my grocery store had them on sale.
  • Slice steak, against the grain, into 1/2-inch-thick slices, then toss with the cornstarch.
  • Slice the green onions into 1-inch lengths (the original recipe called for the green parts only, but I used the whole thing, with the white parts cut thinly) and set aside.
  • Now you're ready to cook; heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok, over high heat.
  • Working in batches (add more oil if needed), brown beef; it takes about 3 to 5 minutes per batch.
  • Transfer browned beef to a plate.
  • Pour the juice mixture into the skillet and keeping the heat at high, let it boil for about one minute, or until it's syrupy.
  • Return beef to skillet along with the orange slices and the green onions.
  • Toss until everything is coated with the sauce and the oranges have heated through (about a minute or so); serve hot.

ORANGE BEEF



Orange Beef image

A classic from Hunan, chun pei ngau yuk translates as "old beef," very old, or as we say in China, so old it gathers dust. The main reason for this is that this dish is most often cooked with old, dried, hard orange peel, and it is fine that way. I prefer fresh orange peel.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 pound thick flank steak, weighed after trimming, cut into strips 2 1/2 inches by 1/4 inch
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon egg white, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon Shao-Hsing wine or dry sherry
Pinch freshly ground white pepper
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon Chinese white rice vinegar or distilled vinegar
2 tablespoons Chicken Stock
Pinch freshly ground white pepper
3 1/2 cups peanut oil, to deep-fry the beef
5 small dried chilies
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 fresh Thai chili, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons 1/2- by 1/8-inch pieces fresh orange peel, most of pith removed
2 scallions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch sections
6 slices fresh orange

Steps:

  • Marinate the beef with baking soda in the refrigerator for 8 hours or, preferably, overnight. After marinating, wash thoroughly, twice, with cold water. Drain and dry with paper towels. Place the beef in a bowl, add the egg white, and mix well until the beef is coated. Add the wine, white pepper, 1 tablespoon peanut oil, and cornstarch, mixing with your hand each time and ingredient is added. Allow to rest for 1 hour, refrigerated. There should be no residue.
  • In a bowl, combine the sauce ingredients and set aside.
  • Heat a wok over high heat for 1 minute. Add the 3 1/2 cups peanut oil and heat to 400 degrees F. Place the beef strips, one at a time, in the oil and cook for 1 1/2 minutes, loosening the beef with a spatula. Remove with a strainer and drain. Heat the oil again to 425 degrees F. Place the beef strips again in the oil and cook for 2 minutes, until the beef becomes crisp. Remove and allow to drain.
  • Drain off all but 1 tablespoon oil from the wok and heat over high heat for 20 seconds. Add the dried chilies, stir, and cook until darkened. Add the ginger and garlic and stir briefly. Add the fresh chili and orange peel and stir briefly. Add the scallions, and mix well. Add the beef and cook, stirring, for 45 seconds. Make a well in the center of the mixture, stir the sauce mixture, and pour in. Mix well until the sauce is absorbed and the beef acquires a shiny coating. Remove to a serving dish and serve, garnished with the orange slices.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 oranges
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 pounds trimmed boneless sirloin or rib eye, cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 to 2 tablespoons canola oil
6 scallions, green parts only, cut into 1-inch lengths

Steps:

  • Into a small bowl, finely grate zest and squeeze juice from 1 orange. Add garlic and soy sauce.

  • In a medium bowl, toss meat with cornstarch until coated. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Working in batches (adding more oil if needed), brown beef on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer to a plate.

Top Cooking Recommendations:

- Cook smart with acidic elements like orange zest and vinegar to balance the dish's flavors. - Elevate the recipe with aromatic spices and herbs. Enhance its umami notes with ginger, star anise, and cinnamon. Incorporate fresh cilantro or basil for a vibrant finish. - Keep the perfect color and texture: Lightly cornstarch the meat strips to lock in their juices. Accomplish the ideal caramelizing effect with a cornstarch-based orange ginger-soy glaze. - Don't let the cooking time intimidate you; with a trusty meat thermometer, you can ensure perfect donenness. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-cooked meat. - Garnish with an extra zing: Add a pop of color and freshness by garnishing with orange slices and a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
