Time 3h25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 pounds beef chuck (preferably grass-fed), cut into 2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 red onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, ribs and seeds removed, chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons berbere seasoning
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3/4 cup dry red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon

1 can (15.5 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Fresh mint leaves, for serving
Cooked couscous, warmed, for serving

Steps:

  • Generously season beef with salt and pepper. Dust with flour and shake off excess. Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high, and swirl in 2 tablespoons oil.

MALAYSIAN INDIAN CURRY-SPICED BEEF BURGERS



Malaysian Indian Curry-Spiced Beef Burgers image

This recipe was inspired by my recent trip to Malaysia in August 2009. I went to visit my father's parents in Penang, the city in which my father was born and raised. Although I'm of Chinese background, my father often integrates Malaysian flavors in his cooking. One of his most popular dishes is his yellow curry, which is a staple of Malaysian Indian food. His traditional curry is rather time-intensive and laborious. I decided to take a simpler approach, making the traditional Malaysian Indian flavors more accessible to my grad student schedule.)

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 41

Canola oil, as needed
1/2 red pepper
1 jalapeno
1/4 red onion, thickly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed
Freshly cracked black pepper, as needed
1/4 cup curry powder, plus more as needed* (See Cook's Note)
3 medium cloves garlic, grated
1 (1-inch) piece ginger, peeled and grated
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala, optional
1 pound ground beef, 85 to 88 percent lean
2 green onions, chopped
2 teaspoons ketchup
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 cup homemade or good quality mayonnaise, recipe follows
10 mint leaves, chopped
2 green onions, chopped
1 reserved grilled jalapeno, seeded (from burger recipe)
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 cup fried onion snacks (recommended: French's Fried Onions)
1 tablespoon garam masala
4 brioche rolls (if brioche is not available, you can use a sweet and sturdy roll, such as a Portuguese hard roll)
4 brioche rolls (if brioche is not available, you can use a sweet and sturdy roll, such as a Portuguese hard roll)
1/2 English cucumber, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds, about 16 pieces total
1 package pre-washed baby lettuce mix
1 egg yolk
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium and lightly grease the grates with canola oil.
  • Drizzle the red pepper, jalapeno and sliced onions with olive oil, and season them with salt, pepper, to taste, and curry powder. Grill the vegetables over medium heat until they have grill marks and are softened, approximately 5 minutes. Allow them to cool, then peel off the skin of the red pepper. Finely chop the onions and pepper and set aside. Reserve the jalapeno for the aioli.
  • In a small saute pan over medium heat, add the 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 cup curry powder, the grated garlic, grated ginger, turmeric, coriander, cumin, and garam masala, if using. Allow the spices to toast in the oil until fragrant and become slightly darker in color, approximately 2 to 3 minutes (If this mixture seems dry, feel free to add a little more oil to the pan.) Allow the spices to cool slightly.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, use a fork or chopsticks to combine the beef, the spice mixture, the grilled red pepper, red onion, green onions, ketchup, brown sugar and soy sauce. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (Marinating overnight is even better to help the flavors marry.)
  • Remove the burger mixture from the refrigerator, and divide it into 4 equal-sized quadrants. Brush the patties with olive oil, season both sides with salt and pepper, and put them the grill. Cook the patties to medium-rare or medium doneness, about 3 minutes on the first side, then 4 to 5 minutes on the second side. Make sure to rotate the patties once on each side to achieve nice crosshatch marks. Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate and tent them with aluminum foil. Allow them to rest for at least 10 minutes.
  • Combine the mayonnaise, mint, green onion, grilled jalapeno, garlic, curry powder, cumin, lime zest and juice in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is well integrated, but there are still chunks of green onion and jalapeno remaining. Season the puree with salt and black pepper, to taste. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, toss together the fried onions with the garam masala until they are evenly dusted with the spice. Set aside.
  • While the burgers rest, halve the brioche rolls, and put them, cut side down, on the grill grates. Toast until they are a light golden brown, about 10 seconds. Set aside.
  • To serve, generously spread 1 tablespoon of aioli onto each side of the rolls. Press 4 to 5 slices of cucumber into the mayonnaise on the bottom of the roll. Top the cucumbers with a handful of baby lettuce, then a burger patty, and finally, approximately 1/4 cup of the fried onion mixture. Cover with the top of the buns and serve immediately with a side salad and the Grilled Sweet Potato Fries.
  • Add the egg yolk, salt, dry mustard, and sugar to a large bowl. Whisk by hand or with an electric mixer until combined. Pour in the lemon juice and vinegar and whisk once more.
  • While whisking continuously, very slowly drizzle in the canola oil. Keep drizzling until the mixture has emulsified and the entire cup of oil has been incorporated into the egg mixture. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 Persian cucumber, finely chopped
Kosher salt
1/2 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound beef sirloin tip, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
12 mixed-color baby bell peppers (about 8 ounce)
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • For the yogurt sauce: Stir together the yogurt, mint, lemon juice and cucumbers. Add salt to taste. Refrigerate while the meat marinates. (The sauce can be made up to 1 day ahead.)
  • For the kabobs: Mix the yogurt, cilantro, coriander, cumin, turmeric, allspice, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the beef and chicken (you can separate them into 2 bowls if you prefer) and toss to coat in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours.
  • Prepare a grill for cooking over medium-high heat.
  • Toss the peppers and onions with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
  • Thread the chicken and beef onto separate skewers (about 5 pieces of meat per skewer), threading a piece of onion between each piece of meat--for even cooking, avoid overcrowding the skewers. Use 2 skewers to thread the peppers, to make them easier to turn. (Make 4 double skewers with 3 peppers each.)
  • Grill the kabobs, turning occasionally, until lightly charred on the outside and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes for the beef (medium-rare), 10 to 12 minutes for the chicken, and about 12 minutes for the vegetables.
  • Serve the kabobs with lemon wedges and the yogurt sauce on the side.

SPICED BEEF IN RED WINE



Spiced Beef in Red Wine image

There is nothing to stop you from serving spiced beef in red wine at a dinner party, but proper cooking should not be undertaken only for company. I make a batch of the beef and, when it is cool, bag it up in single portions and put it in the freezer. It makes a great warming supper for nights when you are lazing on a sofa watching television. Just because it's Wednesday, you need not have to resort to a bagel or grilled cheese for dinner.

Categories     weekday, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 slices bacon, roughly chopped
2 large onions, roughly chopped

1/2 cup fresh parsley
1/3 cup flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 pounds chuck steak in 2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, or more as needed
Pinch ground cloves
1 1/2 cups red wine
2 cups beef stock or canned beef broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 star anise
1 tablespoon light brown sugar

Steps:

  • Working in batches in a food processor, process bacon, onions, leeks, carrots and parsley until finely chopped. Transfer mixture to a large bowl, and set aside. Place flour in a freezer bag or other plastic bag. Season with salt and pepper. Add steak cubes, seal bag, and shake until cubes are well coated.
  • Place a flameproof casserole dish over medium heat, and add 2 tablespoons oil. When hot, add beef in batches, turning until well seared on all sides. As beef is browned, transfer to a plate, and set aside.
  • If casserole dish is dry, add 1 tablespoon oil. Place over medium heat, and add bacon and vegetable mixture and ground cloves. Sauté until softened, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine wine, beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, star anise and brown sugar. Place over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. When vegetables have softened, pour liquid over vegetables.
  • Return beef to pan, and stir well. Bring to a boil, partly cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer gently until beef is tender, about 2 hours. Serve hot. If desired, stew may be cooked and then covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days or frozen for a month.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH WITH LEBANESE SPICED GROUND BEEF AND GARLIC YOG



Butternut Squash With Lebanese Spiced Ground Beef and Garlic Yog image

A very delicious Autumn/Winter dish. "Roasting really concentrates its buttery, nutty flavour and when split lengthways, the empty seed cavity begs to be stuffed, turning it into the perfect portion-control meal for one. " Modified from The Sunday Times article by Lindsey Bareham.

Time 1h10m

Yield 2 , 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (600 g) butternut squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
sea salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1 medium onion
250 g ground beef (I use extra lean and add some canola oil while cooking to make it less dry)
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon baharat (Baharat Aka Middle East Mixed Spices - the Real Mix)
25 g pine nuts
1/4 cup water
25 g flat leaf parsley
175 g plain yogurt
1 plump garlic clove
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 tablespoon unrefined extra virgin olive oil (or the best you have)

Steps:

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425F/220C/gas mark 7.
  • Using a strong, sharp knife, halve the butternut lengthways. Scrape out and discard the seeds. Extend the cavity by cutting out chunks of squash. Don't be too fussy about this because you want plenty of butternut to remain. Cut a light lattice all over the flesh to speed up cooking.
  • Use 1 tbsp olive oil to smear the surface lavishly. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Roast for 35-45 minutes or until the flesh is meltingly tender. (Check before end of cooking time as hopefully you have a ripe squash but if you don't it takes longer).
  • Meanwhile, peel, halve and chop the onion.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tbs olive oil in a spacious frying pan and cook the onion for about 10 minutes until limp and uncoloured.
  • Finely chop the excavated butternut.
  • Add the mince, increase the heat slightly and cook, stirring and breaking up clumps of meat. If using extra lean like I do add some canola oil to keep the meat less dry! It will take about 6 minutes to be browned all over.
  • Add chopped butternut squash.
  • Stir in the cumin, baharat, sea salt, to taste, freshly ground black pepper, to taste, and pine kernels. Cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Add water, simmer, cover and cook for 8-10 minutes. Remove the lid and cook briskly until juicy but not the least bit wet or greasy.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • Chop the parsley leaves. Stir into the mixture.
  • Spoon it into the cavity and over the cooked squash.
  • To make the yoghurt, peel, chop and crush the garlic with a generous pinch of sea salt (discard the green central shoot). Beat into the yoghurt with the lemon juice and 1 tbsp of the best olive oil you have.
  • Spoon the yoghurt over the butternut and serve. (We do this at the table).
  • Enjoy!

1 cup chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

Tips for Cooking Spiced Beef:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, or short ribs are good choices because they have a lot of flavor and connective tissue that will break down and become tender during the cooking process.
  • Use a good quality spice blend: The spices are what give spiced beef its characteristic flavor, so it's important to use a blend that you like. Some common spices used in spiced beef include cumin, coriander, paprika, chili powder, and garlic powder.
  • Brown the beef before braising it: Browning the beef adds flavor and color to the dish. You can brown the beef in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  • Braise the beef until it is fall-apart tender: Braising is a low and slow cooking method that allows the beef to become very tender. You can braise the beef in a covered pot or Dutch oven in the oven or on the stovetop.
  • Serve the spiced beef with your favorite sides: Spiced beef can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.

Spiced beef is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to cook beef, give spiced beef a try.
