BEEF WITH SNOW PEAS



Beef with Snow Peas image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 16m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons sherry or cooking sherry
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 pounds flank steak, trimmed of fat and sliced very thin against the grain
3 tablespoons peanut or olive oil
8 ounces fresh snow peas, trimmed
5 whole scallions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces on the diagonal
Crushed red pepper
Salt, as needed (use sparingly!)
Jasmine or long-grain rice, cooked according to package directions

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch, brown sugar and ginger. Add the beef to a separate bowl and pour one-third of the liquid over the top. Save the rest of the liquid. Toss the beef and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet (iron is best) over high heat. Add the snow peas and stir for 45 seconds, getting as much color on them as possible. Remove to a plate.
  • Allow the skillet to get very hot again. With tongs, add half the meat mixture, leaving most of the marinade still in the bowl. Spread out the meat as you add it to skillet, but do not stir for a good minute. (You want the meat to get as brown as possible as quickly as possible.) Sprinkle half the scallions over the meat. Flip the meat to the other side and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove to a clean plate.
  • Repeat with the other half of the meat, allowing the skillet to get very hot again first. After flipping, add the first plateful of meat, the reserved liquid, the crushed red pepper and snow peas. Stir over high heat for 30 seconds, and then turn off the heat. Check the seasonings and add salt only if it needs it. The mixture will thicken as it sits. Serve immediately over rice.

BEEF IN OYSTER SAUCE



Beef in Oyster Sauce image

I love this dish. It's full of flavor, and takes minutes to cook. This is definitely, one of my favorite suppers. This is essentially 3 stir fried dishes in one - stir fried spinach, beef in oyster sauce and mushrooms in tangy vinegar. This dish uses all my top store cupboard ingredients: groundnut oil for the stir-fry, light soy sauce, Shaohsing rice wine, Chinkiang black rice vinegar and dried chile flakes. It also has oyster sauce in it. Try and find an oyster sauce which doesn't have chemical additives or Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) in it - some people are allergic to MSG so check the label to make sure that it doesn't have flavor enhancers. This is a balanced dish because of the use of spinach - (yin) and meat and garlic (yang). Stir frying has a neutral element. You can serve this with plain Jasmine rice or just with the spinach and mushrooms.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 ounces beef fillet (tenderloin), pounded and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Pinch sugar
2 tablespoons groundnut oil (peanut), divided
3 cloves garlic, crushed and finely chopped
1 medium chile, seeded and finely chopped
7 ounces baby spinach leaves
1 tablespoon Shaohsing rice wine
Pinch dried chile flakes
1 teaspoon groundnut oil (peanut)
4 ounces oyster mushrooms
Water, as needed
1 tablespoon black rice vinegar* (recommended: Chinkiang) or balsamic vinegar
Dash light soy sauce

Steps:

  • To make the beef: Prepare the fillet of beef by hammering it with a meat cleaver, the side of a meat cleaver, the side of a Chinese cleaver or a rolling pin. Slice it thinly, and put the pieces into a bowl. Season the beef with the light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Set aside.
  • Heat a wok over high heat, and add 1 tablespoon groundnut oil. Add the garlic, and chile, and toss quickly. Then, add the spinach leaves, and toss so they warm for 5 seconds. Scatter them onto a large serving plate.
  • Heat the wok over high heat, and add the remaining groundnut oil. Add the beef slices, and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, adding a dash of Shaohsing rice wine. Season with a pinch of dried chile flakes. To serve, lay the beef over a bed of the garlic-spinach leaves.
  • To make the mushrooms: Reheat the wok, add the oil, then add the oyster mushrooms and stir fry for 1 minute. Add a small splash of water to create some steam to help cook. Season with the black rice vinegar, and light soy sauce. Spoon the mixture over the beef, and serve.

Categories     Beef     Vegetable     Stir-Fry     Quick & Easy     Scallop     Shrimp     Spring     Prosciutto     Sugar Snap Pea     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

For XO sauce
2 tablespoons small dried shrimp* (1/4 ounce)
1 cup water
1/4 cup dried scallops* (about 10; each 1 inch wide)
1/2 cup peanut oil
1/4 cup finely minced onion (1/2 small)
3 garlic cloves, finely minced (1 tablespoon)
1 teaspoon minced fresh hot red chile including seeds
2 tablespoons minced Virginia ham (preferably Smithfield) or fine-quality prosciutto (1/2 ounce)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For beef and snow peas
1 lb sirloin steak, sliced 1/4 inch thick against the grain, visible fat trimmed and discarded
2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine or medium-dry Sherry
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1/2 lb snow peas, trimmed and strings discarded
Accompaniment: steamed white rice
Special Equipment
a 14-inch wok

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Cover dried shrimp with boiling-hot water in a small bowl and soak 1 hour.
  • Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a 1-quart heavy saucepan and add dried scallops (scallops should be completely submerged). Remove from heat and soak 15 minutes. Return pan to heat and simmer over low heat until scallops are soft and pale, about 15 minutes, then remove from heat and cool in cooking liquid. Transfer scallops to a bowl with a slotted spoon, reserving cooking liquid. Shred scallops into "threads" with a fork or your fingers, discarding abductor muscle (abductor will remain solid but scallop meat shreds easily).
  • Drain shrimp, discarding any blemished or dark pieces, and chop very finely.
  • Heat wok over moderate heat, then add oil, swirling to coat, and heat until hot but not smoking. Add onion, garlic, and chile and cook, stirring gently, until mixture stops steaming, about 3 minutes.
  • Add shrimp, scallops, ham, and black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, 3 minutes. Add reserved scallop cooking liquid and simmer over low heat until slightly darkened and most of liquid is evaporated (leaving only oil), 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer sauce to a bowl and cool. Wipe wok clean.
  • Make beef and snow peas:
  • Toss beef with rice wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, and pepper in a bowl until well coated, then marinate 15 minutes.
  • Heat wok over high heat until smoking, then add 1/2 tablespoon oil, swirling to coat, and heat until smoking. Add half of beef and cook, turning over once, until browned, about 1 minute total, then transfer to a clean bowl. Add another 1/2 tablespoon oil and repeat with remaining beef.
  • Pat snow peas dry if necessary. Wipe wok clean and heat until hot but not smoking, then add remaining tablespoon oil, swirling to coat. Add snow peas carefully (oil may splatter) and stir-fry until bright green, about 1 minute. Add XO sauce and stir-fry until snow peas are coated. If mixture seems dry, add 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Cover wok and cook snow peas until crisp-tender, about 1 minute.
  • Add beef with any juices accumulated in bowl and stir-fry until beef is heated through and sauce is thickened, about 1 minute.

SPICY BEEF FILET IN OYSTER SAUCE



Spicy Beef Filet in Oyster Sauce image

My good friend Lin gave me a recipe for beef in oyster sauce, I misread the amount of black pepper called for in her recipe, and the result was fantastic! I especially like the recipe because no soy sauce is used. My husband likes to eat them with the leftover sliced uncooked onion to bring out the sweetness of the oyster sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak, skirt steak, or sirloin steak are all good choices for this recipe. They are relatively thin and cook quickly, so you don't have to worry about overcooking them.
  • Slice the beef thinly against the grain: This will help the beef cook evenly and tenderize it.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much beef to the pan at once, it will steam instead of sear. Cook the beef in batches if necessary.
  • Use a high-quality oyster sauce: Oyster sauce is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure you use a good one. Look for a brand that is made with real oysters and has a rich, savory flavor.
  • Add the snow peas at the end of cooking: Snow peas cook quickly, so you don't want to add them to the pan until the beef is almost done. This will help them stay crisp and tender.

Conclusion:

This oyster sauce beef and snow peas recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The beef is tender and flavorful, the snow peas are crisp and refreshing, and the oyster sauce adds a rich, savory flavor. Serve this dish over rice or noodles for a complete meal.
