Best Beef Wasabi Appetizer Recipes

WASABI BEEF

Steps:

• Mix together the Miso paste, Wasabi and about 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
• Rub this mixture into the beef thoroughly. Then wrap the beef up in clingfilm and let the flavour seep into the meat for 10 minutes. Meanwhile add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce to the dish you used to make the sauce, just to use up any miso or wasabi still clinging onto the dish.
• To cook the beef, use some sesame oil or butter or margarine (doesnt really matter here) and wait for the pan to get hot before slapping the steak on.
• Immediately pour the soy sauce (or simply use a spoon of water) onto the pan and cover the lid. Allow the beef to cook according to your preferred taste (fully cooked or half rare).
• When the beef is nearly done, remove the lid and sprinkle some black pepper into the steak. Allow the beef to 'burn' slightly to give it a little bit of a BBQ feel.
• Serve with noodle salad or any Asian dishes. It tastes lovely if you drizzle a little more sesame oil over the top and sprinkle some white/black sesame seeds.
