Pastry Topped Ginger Beef Recipes

Steps:

• Place steak, ginger, and soy sauce in a bowl; turn to coat steak. Cover tightly; marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
• Heat a wok over high heat; pour in beef mixture. Cover wok; cook until beef is browned, about 5 minutes. Remove beef from wok.
• Heat butter in wok over high heat; stir in bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, and sweet and sour sauce. Cover and cook until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir cooked beef into vegetable mixture; cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve over cooked rice.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients and add beef strips.
• Toss to coat well.
• Allow to marinade 30 minutes or overnight.
• In frying pan or electric wok, heat 2 tsp oil over medium heat.
• Stir fry beef mixture in oil 2-3 minutes or until browned.
• Remove from pan, and set aside.
• In pan add remaining 3 tsps of oil, and stir fry vegetables, garlic and ginger for 1 minute.
• Add beef back to pan and stir fry 2 minutes.
• Mix cornstarch and water together and add to frying pan.
• Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is thickened.
• Serve with rice or oriental noodles.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. If using shop-bought pastry, take it out of the fridge to reach room temperature while you prepare the vegetables and meat.
• Peel and roughly chop the potatoes, onion and swede into ¼cm cubes. Trim the beef of any fat or sinew, then cut into small strips and chunks. Season well and divide both the meat and vegetables into six equally sized portions.
• Roll the pastry into a log and cut into six equal pieces. Knead and lightly stretch or roll each piece into 20cm-wide circles. Layer on the beef and veg, slightly to one side. Keep harder textures like swede in the middle, followed by potato then beef towards the edges. This will prevent anything piercing the dough when crimping.
• Add two knobs of the butter per pasty and a light sprinkling of flour to thicken the gravy inside and prevent soggy bottoms. Lightly wet your fingertips and dampen the edges of each pasty, then gently fold one end over the filling to enclose it. Keeping your fingers slightly damp, crimp the edges.
• Put the pasties on a baking tray covered with a sheet of baking parchment, then cut two small slits into the top of each. Brush with beaten egg and cook for 10-15 mins. When starting to brown, turn the oven down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and cook for further 45 mins until golden. Leave to cool for at least 10 mins before serving.

Steps:

• In a food processor, process flour, sugar (if using) and butter with on/off turns (about 2-3 seconds at a time) until the mixture begins to look like coarse oatmeal.
• Combine the ginger ale with vinegar, and add through feed tube while machine is running; process just until the dough begins to gather in a mass around the blades (about 8-10 seconds, do not overprocess!).
• Dump the dough onto the counter.
• Gather up all the dough then shape into a flat disc.
• Wrap disc in plastic wrap and chill in fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes or up to overnight.
• Dough may be frozen wrapped in plastic wrap then tightly in foil.
