Beef Satay With Peanut Ginger Ramen Recipes

Steps:

• For the beef and dressing: Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium-high heat.
• Season both sides of the steak with salt. Grill until medium rare, about 4 minutes per side. Set aside.
• To make the dressing, combine the ponzu (or soy sauce), sesame oil, olive oil, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, hot chili oil and garlic in a bowl. Mix to combine, then taste and adjust the flavors/seasonings.
• When the steak is cool enough, place in a large resealable plastic bag. Add 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Seal the bag tightly and place in the fridge until needed.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to the package directions. Drain and place in a bowl. Pour the remaining dressing over the top and toss to combine. Finally, toss in the green onions. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours or until cool. You can make the steak and noodles well in advance of when you want to serve them.
• For the peanut sauce: Heat the vegetable oil in a small pot over low heat. Add the curry powder, garlic, shallot and ginger and cook until the aromatics soften, about 5 minutes.
• Scrape into a blender and add the coconut milk, soy sauce, brown sugar, peanut butter, hot chili oil, lime juice and a pinch of salt. Blend, adding hot water as needed a little at a time to thin it and make it smooth.
• To serve, slice the steak against the grain into thin strips. Drizzle a little ponzu (or soy sauce) over the noodles, just to give them a little flavor boost, throw in the chopped cilantro and toss to combine. Serve the strips of beef over a mound of noodles, or throw it all into a bowl together. Put some of the peanut sauce into small bowls and serve on the side--to be poured over when you eat.

Steps:

• Soak 12 wooden skewers in water, 15 minutes. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1 tablespoon each soy sauce and lime juice and 1 teaspoon each sugar and ginger. Add beef, toss, and let sit 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a blender, puree remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, 3/4 teaspoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon ginger with peanut butter and 1/3 cup water. Season with remaining soy sauce.
• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Thread beef onto skewers. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Grill beef until charred and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Toss ramen with peanut-ginger sauce. Serve with beef and cucumber.

Steps:

• Soak 12 wooden skewers in water for 15 minutes if using; I normally just grill the strips of beef as is.
• In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons each soy sauce and lime juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons each sugar and ginger. Add optional garlic and/or 1/4 teaspoon optional red pepper flakes if a little heat is desired. Add beef, toss, and let sit 10 minutes. The marinating can also be done in a large, resealable plastic bag; make sure to squeeze out all air when sealing in beef and marinade. I have also skipped the skewers and cut my beef into 1 inch strips.
• Meanwhile, in a blender (I use my handy Bullet), puree remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1 teaspoon ginger with peanut butter and 1/3 cup water. Season to taste using remaining soy sauce and blend again. Stir in chopped peanuts and green onions and optional remaining 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
• Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Thread beef onto skewers if using. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Grill beef until charred and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Toss ramen with peanut-ginger sauce. Serve with beef and a vegetable, like steamed eda mame.

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir together all of the ingredients for the marinade, coat meat thoroughly and leave to marinate 4 hours, or overnight is best.
• When marinated, thread onto skewers if you like, otherwise pan fry or barbecue.
• Cook meat on BBQ, grill or pan until cooked. Keep warm.
• Mix together all the Peanut sauce ingredients in a small saucepan, heat gently over low heat until peanut butter is melted and all ingredients are combined and hot. Serve with meat. Satay is always best served with jasmine or white rice.
