CHINESE BEEF AND ASPARAGUS WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE



Chinese Beef and Asparagus With Black Bean Sauce image

The second of my three favorite Chinese recipes, adapted from The Frugal Gourmet. Since I don't like CRISP asparagus that tastes like grass to me, I make below the suggestion that you steam the asparagus briefly. I serve this over rice but it'd be good over noodles too.

Time 25m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 lbs asparagus
1 lb flank steak, sliced thinly across the grain
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
3 tablespoons dry sherry or 3 tablespoons chinese rice wine
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 -3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fermented black beans, rinsed and chopped
1 pinch salt
1 pinch sugar
1/4 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • Prepare the asparagus by washing, breaking the stem at the "natural" break point and slice diagonally into 1/2 to 1 inch pieces.
  • (OPTIONAL: Steam the asparagus pieces for 3-4 minutes.) Put aside.
  • Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl (soy sauce, ginger, sherry and cornstarch) then add the sliced meat. Mix well and let sit for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally if you wish.
  • Head a wok or large frying pan, add the oil. When it is is just beginning to smoke, add the meat, laying each piece on one side in the pan, Do not turn but cook over high heat for a moment, until the one side begins to brown. Toss-stir the meat for a moment and remove from the pan, allowing the oil to drain back into the pan. You may want to do this in two batches to keep the meat sizzling.
  • Heat the pan to hot again and add the garlic. Stir-fry for a minute then add the rinsed, chopped black beans and stirfry another bit. Add the asparagus, toss with the vegetables then add the other T of soy sauce and the pinches of sugar and salt. Stirfy until the asparagus is done to your liking (probably about 5 minutes if you didn't steam it first; less if you did).
  • Add the meat and its drippings and the chicken broth. Stir to make a sauce, then serve.

STIR-FRIED BEEF WITH MUSHROOMS AND ASPARAGUS



Stir-Fried Beef With Mushrooms and Asparagus image

This recipe was my first "Mushroom Monday Challenge" dinner. I love stir-fries, and this one comes together in a snap. You can always use any vegetables that you may have on hand if you are short what's listed in the ingredients. Red or green peppers could be used if you don't have asparagus, even a little sliced carrot would be delicious.

BEEF STIR-FRY WITH ASPARAGUS, RED BELL PEPPERS AND CARAMELIZED O



Beef Stir-Fry With Asparagus, Red Bell Peppers and Caramelized O image

A great summer dish with fresh, local and organic ingredients! Do not be fooled by the long list of ingredients. This recipe is very easy and incredibly tasty, inspired by the sharp, tangy flavors of Asian cooking. A wok would be ideal, but a good skillet or saute pan will do the trick. Serve this dish with plain or white rice.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 lb flank steak
2 -3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 sweet onion
1/2 lb asparagus
1 red bell pepper
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Trim the excess fat and cut the flank steak in small, bite-size pieces. Combine the ingredients for the marinade and let the beef marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the onions in thin slices. The bell peppers should be seeded and cut in 1-inch slices. Cut the tougher ends of the asparagus and slice them on the diagonal into 2-inch long pieces.
  • Bring a medium pan of water to a boil, reduce to a simmer and throw the asparagus in for about 2 or 3 minutes. Drain them, run them under cold water and dry them.
  • In a wok or sauté pan over a high flame, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the marinated beef strips, making sure it makes a nice sizzling sound. Once the meat is nicely browned on the outside, but still tender in the middle, about 2-3 minutes depending on the size, take it out and set it aside on a plate. You may need to sear the beef in two batches if your wok is not big enough.
  • Add 1 more tablespoon of the oil, and briefly stir-fry the asparagus for 3-4 minutes at medium-high eat. Set the asparagus aside and keep warm.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil, if necessary, and add the onions. Toss and turn until they have a nice golden brown color, 7 to 10 minutes. Add the peppers and stir until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add sugar and vinegar, and cook for a few more minutes until the onions begin to caramelize.
  • Add the stock and bring to a simmer cooking for another 2 minutes to reduce the liquid. Mix the cornstarch with the 3 tablespoons of water and add slowly add it to the mixture until the sauce is a thick as you desire.
  • Return the beef and the asparagus to the pan and stir for another minute or so to amalgamate the flavors. Serve immediately with some white or brown rice.
