Watch Hayden Quinn and Adam Liaw cook a delicious Teriyaki Steak with buttered asian greens.
For more recipes visit http://www.BeefandLamb.com.au
Recipe
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 tbsp vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, sliced
2 x 300g good quality rump steaks (or tri-tip)
steamed rice, to serve
Light teriyaki glaze
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp sake (or 2 tbsp vodka)
2 tbsp mirin (or 1 extra tbsp caster sugar and 2 tbsp water)
1 tbsp caster sugar
Buttered Asian greens
1 small bunch each spinach, pak choy and gai lan, trimmed
1 tbsp salt
20g butter
Method
1. To make the teriyaki glaze mix together the soy, sake, mirin and sugar and stir to dissolve the sugar. If the sugar will not dissolve, heat the glaze in the microwave for 10-20 seconds, or in a small saucepan on the stove, and stir again.
2. Heat a heavy frypan over medium heat and add the oil. Fry the garlic until lightly browned, then remove and drain on absorbent paper. Increase the pan heat to medium-high and add the steaks, browning well on all sides.
3. Add the glaze to the pan around the steaks and repeatedly flip the steaks through the glaze, cook the steaks to your liking and checking doneness by pressing the steak with your fingers. As the glaze begins to thicken it will stick to the steaks. Remove the steaks to a warm plate in a draught-free spot, pour over any sticky glaze left in the pan, and rest for 5 minutes.
4. Slice the steaks, arrange the slices on a plate and scatter over the garlic.
5. For the buttered greens, but the gai lan into 8cm lengths and quarter the pak choy. Bring a large pot of water to the boil and add butter. Then add the thicker stems of the gai lan to the water first, then the thinner stems, bok choy, and finally the spinach. Add the salt and mix well. Remove the vegetables and strain.
6. Serve the steak with the buttered vegetables and steamed rice.
Tips
Suggested other greens – Broccoli, Broccolini, Bok Choy

Beef Casserole with Sweet Potato
Learn how Hayden Quinn and Em Rusciano cook up a hearty Beef casserole with sweet potato and chick peas. A fantastic comfort dish perfect for the whole family! For more recipes visit http://www.BeefandLamb.com.au Recipe Prep time: 15 mins Cook time: 2 hrs Serves: 4 Ingredients 600 g chuck, trimmed 2 tsp olive oil 1 onion, chopped 2 tsp sweet paprika 2 tsp ground cumin 750 ml bottled tomato passata sauce ½ cup water 3 roma tomatoes, chopped 1 large sweet potato, cut into large chunks 400 g can chickpeas, drained To serve 1 cup couscous as per packet instructions 1 zucchini grated and squeezed of excess moisture 2 tbsp coriander leaves, picked Method 1. Cut beef into 2.5cm-3cm cubes. Season with salt and pepper, coat with a little oil and mix. Heat a large frypan over medium-high heat. Brown beef in 2 batches. Remove and place in a heavy-based pot. 2. Reduce heat in frypan, add oil, onion and spices, cook for 2 mins. Add passata and water, stir until it boils. Pour over the beef, add tomatoes and sweet potato. 3. Partially cover pot and cook over a low heat on the stove top. Simmer until meat is very tender, about 2 hours. Stir occasionally, add a little water if needed as it cooks. Add chickpeas to warm through in the last 10 mins. Serve with zucchini tossed through couscous and coriander leaves. Tips Don’t rush the initial stage of browning the meat. This will make your stew rich in colour and flavour. Simmer the stew gently, stir occasionally and if needed, adjust the heat as it cooks. Taste it to see if it’s ready. When it’s done the meat should be tender enough to fall apart easily with a fork. To find out what else Hayden has been up to visit http://www.youtube.com/HaydenQuinnTV

For the Genghis Khan sauce, bring the sake and mirin (or white wine) to the boil in a small saucepan, then transfer to a food processor or blender with the remaining sauce ingredients and process to a smooth puree. Pour about the third of the sauce over the lamb and marinade in the fridge overnight. Keep the rest of the sauce in the fridge overnight before using, as it needs time for the flavours to develop. 2. Heat your BBQ hotplate until very hot and brush with oil. Put a little of everything onto the BBQ and cook until done to your liking, removing each vegetable as they are done and putting them onto a warmed serving plate. Pile everything onto your serving plate and top with the cooked lamb. As the lamb rests the juices will run down and flavour the vegetables. Serve with the remaining Genghis Khan sauce for dipping both the meat and the vegetables. To find out what else Hayden has been up to visit http://www.youtube.com/HaydenQuinnTV
