When most people think “Salisbury steak”, they conjure images of salty TV dinners. But really, its similar to sliced meatloaf soaking in mushroom gravy.
Most of the time I would use oxtails in kare-kare, but I wanted to try something new. A friend, Mike Deguzman, posted a picture of oxtails he ate for lunch at a local Caribbean restaurant, so I wanted to try it out.
After a KILLER boot-camp workout, I was craving protein. I don’t usually eat steak, but this turned out pretty good. I’m also including the recipe for the au jus (pronounced “ah-shew”) sauce.
The Basics
The Steak
- Steak of your choice – I think a bone-less ribeye
Beefsteak, or bistek, is a pretty simple Filipino dish. This recipe is great especially great if you’re low on money or on time to cook!
The Basics
- Beef; some sort of steak cut into medium sized strips.
- 1 med-large onion; cut into rings
- Soy sauce
Lindsey and I watched “Julie/Julia” this weekend (Meryl Strep was hilarious!), and it really inspired me to try french cuisine. Beef bourguignon is a slow-cooked beef stew in a wine sauce. I couldn’t find the Julia Child’s recipe online, so I tried Ina Garten’s verison (aka The Barefoot Contessa from The Food Network) and it was awesome!
