BLACK PEPPER BEEF AND CABBAGE STIR-FRY



Black Pepper Beef and Cabbage Stir-Fry image

Coarsely crushed black peppercorns star in this quick weeknight dish, which is built primarily from pantry staples. Don't be shy about adding the entire tablespoon of pepper, as it balances out the richness of the beef and adds a lightly spicy bite to the dish. A quick rub of garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper and cornstarch seasons the beef; the cornstarch helps tenderize the beef and later imparts a silky texture to the sauce. Feel free to marinate the beef up to 8 hours ahead and cook when you're ready. If leftovers remain, tuck them into a crunchy baguette or roll them into a wrap.

Provided by Sue Li

Categories     dinner, quick, weeknight, steaks and chops, vegetables, main course

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, coarsely crushed with the bottom of a cup or pan
3 garlic cloves, grated
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Kosher salt
3/4 pound sirloin steak, thinly sliced crosswise
3 tablespoons sunflower oil or other neutral oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 head small green cabbage (about 8 ounces), thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, crushed with your fingertips
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Cooked rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Add peppercorns, garlic, brown sugar, cornstarch and 1 teaspoon salt to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add sliced steak and toss to coat.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add steak and cook, stirring frequently, until some of the edges are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add soy sauce and toss beef to coat, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beef to a bowl or plate.

TEA-SMOKED PORK AND TENDER CABBAGE STIR-FRY



Tea-Smoked Pork and Tender Cabbage Stir-Fry image

The wok has many uses. Since Chinese homes don't have ovens, cooks learned to use the wok and its lid as an oven and a smoker. The Hunan Chinese especially took to this method; their cuisine is known for its inclusion of smoked meats such as duck and pork. The smoking mixture of sugar and tea leaves provides the smoky flavor, while the rice provides the fuel for the smoke. Once smoked, the pork is stir-fried with cabbage in a mild spicy sauce.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1/2 pound boneless pork butt
4 cups water
3 quarter-sized slices peeled ginger
2 green onions, trimmed
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup black or oolong tea leaves
1/4 cup uncooked rice
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3 star anise
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 teaspoons minced red or green jalapeno chile
1 1/2 to 2 cups sliced (1-inch) Napa cabbage
1/3 cup thinly sliced carrot
1/3 cup sliced bamboo shoots
1/4 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons chile garlic sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved in 1 tablespoon water
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Place the pork in a 2-quart saucepan, add the water, ginger, green onions, sugar, and salt, and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat so the liquid is simmering, cover the pot, and simmer until the pork is almost cooked through, about 8 minutes. Drain the pork and set aside.
  • Line the inside of a wok and the inside of its lid with aluminum foil. Make the smoking mixture: Stir the tea leaves, rice, sugar, and star anise together in the lined wok, then spread evenly over the bottom. Set a round rack over the smoking mixture, about 3 inches above the mixture, and set the pork on the center of the rack.
  • Place the wok, uncovered, over high heat. When the rice mixture begins to smoke, cover the wok, reduce the heat to medium, and smoke until the pork turns a rich, deep brown, about 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand for 5 minutes before removing the lid.
  • Let the pork cool briefly, then cut into1/8-inch-thick slices. (Discard the smoking mixture and foil.) Clean the wok and heat it over high heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the sides. Add the garlic, ginger and chile and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the pork, cabbage, carrot, and bamboo shoots and stir-fry until the cabbage is wilted, about 1 minute.
  • Add the chicken stock, soy sauce and chile garlic sauce and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat so the sauce is simmering, cover the wok, and simmer until the carrot is tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Pour in the dissolved cornstarch and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 30 seconds. Stir in the sesame oil, scoop onto a warm serving platter and serve hot.

Tips:

  • To ensure the cabbage remains crisp, cut it into bite-sized pieces and avoid overcooking.
