Most of the beef that I get comes from a farm – so if you also have that insider track or you have stored beef in the freezer pre-beef recall from certain stores and meat-packing places then let’s get into this recipe!

In this recipe, a Korean-styled beef dish, the beef will be easier to cut into thin slices if it is partially frozen.

Serves 3 to 4 – goes with other dishes.

Ingredient list:

  • 500g beef or 1 pound beef steak (sirloin or other), finely sliced
  • 4 green onions, chopped about 1 inch or 2.54 cm in length

Marinade –

  • 60 ml or 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 30 ml or 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 15 ml or 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 30 ml or 2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 2 garlic clove, finely sliced
  • 5 ml or 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • pepper flakes to taste

Putting it together:

  1. Prepare the marinade, mixing all the ingredients together. Pour over the sliced beef, cover and marinate at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  2. Drain the beef mix well and cook with the green onions over high heat in a wok or skillet until you get the desired texture and amount of donness in the meat.

Happy kitchening, cooking & cuisine!

Living in a province where I see many bumper stickers that say “We love our beef” combined with the news stories of E coli concerns from a meat-packing plant to salads that may have salmonella can potentially leave one feeling unsure about the foods and left in a state of uncertainty of where to find certain foods that we need (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats as the basis we may find on our plates).

The focus on the next few pieces of information here will be about protein and where we can find protein to include in our day’s food intake. Why? Well from my professional background as well as my athletic background, I know that protein is an essential in keeping our muscles as well as our bones renewed and ready to tackle what we may be facing in our day. A variety of protein foods helps to provide the healthy fats that we need as well, which helps with our youthful heart and brain!
