JAPANESE STEAKHOUSE FRIED RICE RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Japanese Steakhouse Fried Rice Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by AzWench

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 carrots, finely chopped
2 cups cooked medium-grain rice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 green onions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons gomasio (sesame and salt seasoning)
Black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large wok or on a griddle, scramble the eggs in 1 tablespoon of the butter over low to medium heat. Remove from the wok and set aside on a plate. Melt the additional 2 tablespoons of butter in the wok or on the griddle over high heat. Add the garlic and carrots, stirring constantly. After 1 to 2 minutes, stir in the cooked rice and soy sauce. Toss to thoroughly incorporate the ingredients. Add the cooked eggs and onion and mix in the gomasio and black pepper to taste; cook for another 6 to 8 minutes, or until the rice is warmed through and the flavors incorporated. Serve immediately alongside grilled meats or a teriyaki-style main dish. Tips: Make your fried rice stand out by varying the ingredients. Yumiko Kanou, chef and owner of the Tokyo restaurant Nakaiseki Sen, leaves out the egg, butter and gomasio and adds pine nuts, sesame oil and chiles de arbol to her brown fried rice. A splash of sake added along with the soy sauce adds another layer of flavor to fried rice, too. Cook the rice the day before and refrigerate it overnight. Refrigerated rice is less likely to stick together when fried, so you'll get separated grains, rather than a mushy mass. To give the rice even more flavor, cook it in chicken or vegetable broth. That Steakhouse Flavor Although this recipe is a close approximation of Japanese steakhouse fried rice, it can't duplicate it exactly. Teppanyaki-style restaurants usually cook the rice straight on the grill that's used to cook the meat and multiple other dishes. This imparts a flavor into the rice that's unique and almost impossible to replicate without a highly seasoned grill.

SAKE STEAK AND RICE

This is recipe from Nigella Lawson. I have tried this yet; but it sounds delicious. Posting here for safe keeping.

Provided by Cooking Queen

Categories     Japanese

Time 2h20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 lb steak fillet
1 cup basmati rice
2 cardamom pods
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon English mustard
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon garlic or 1 tablespoon chili oil
1/4 cup sake
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce or 1/2 teaspoon brown rice vinegar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon English mustard

Steps:

  • 1. In a frezeer bag or covered container, combine marinad ingredients, and add the steak. Leave to marinate a few hours or leave in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • 2. Let the steak come to room tempature before you start cooking, and you can put on the rice on at the same time. Follow packet instructions for the rice, or rice cooker handbook or just put the rice in a pan, bruise the cardamon pods and put them in the rice. NOTE: Nigella never salts the rice, but it's up to you if you chose to do so.
  • 3. Heat a griddle pan and then get the steaks out of the marinade, cook the steaks 2 minutes a side or so, and remove the steaks, double wrap them in foil. Let them rest 10 minutes.
  • 4. Bring the sake to a boil in a saucepan, to let the alcohol evaporate. Take the pan of the heat and add the other sauce ingredients. Unwrap the steaks, removing to a wooden board for carving as you do so, and pour the red juices gathered in the foil into the pan of sauce. Arrange the rice on two plates or one big serving platter, and slice the steak into thin diagonal slices. Lay carved steak on top of rice and spoon over the sauce. Scatter the cilantro on top.

Tips:

  • Select High-Quality Ingredients: Use premium cuts of steak, such as ribeye, strip loin, or tenderloin, for the best flavor and texture. Opt for fresh vegetables and fragrant herbs to enhance the dish's overall taste.
  • Tenderize the Steak: Before cooking, tenderize the steak using a meat mallet or by marinating it in a mixture of soy sauce, sake, and garlic. This helps break down the tough fibers, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Use a Cast Iron Skillet: A well-seasoned cast iron skillet is ideal for searing the steak. Its ability to retain heat evenly promotes a beautiful crust and juicy interior.
  • Sear the Steak Properly: Heat the skillet over high heat and sear the steak for a short period, about 2-3 minutes per side, to create a delicious crust. Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
  • Rest the Steak: After searing, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Use Fresh Aromatics: Incorporate fresh herbs like ginger, garlic, and green onions into the sauce and rice to enhance the dish's flavor and aroma.
  • Adjust the Sauce to Your Preference: Tailor the sauce's sweetness, saltiness, and acidity by adjusting the amounts of sake, soy sauce, and mirin. You can also add a touch of heat with some freshly grated ginger or red pepper flakes.

Conclusion:

This sake steak and rice recipe is a delightful fusion of Japanese and Western flavors. The tender and flavorful steak, paired with the aromatic rice and savory sauce, creates a harmonious and satisfying meal. Whether you're a seasoned cook or a beginner in the kitchen, this recipe offers a delicious and impressive dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
