Beef and Vegetable Roll Ingredients- 10-12 thinly sliced beef round slices (about [thickness] for rolling)
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper
- 1/2 red bell pepper
- 1/2 bunch king oyster mushrooms
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Cooking oil as needed
Sweet and Tangy Soy Dipping Sauce- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp vinegar
- 1 Tbsp water
- 1 tsp oligosaccharide
- A little fresh wasabi (or mustard)
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp vinegar
- 1 Tbsp water
- 1 tsp oligosaccharide
- A little fresh wasabi (or mustard)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently press the beef round slices with paper towels to absorb any excess blood. This step helps to remove any gamey odor and ensures a cleaner flavor.
Step 2
Season both sides of the beef slices evenly with salt and pepper. Let them sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 3
Wash the yellow and red bell peppers, remove the core and seeds, and then cut them into strips of about 0.5 cm thickness. Keeping them julienned will enhance their crisp texture.
Step 4
Trim the tough, woody ends of the king oyster mushrooms. Gently separate the mushroom stems into smaller, manageable pieces with your fingers. Lightly rinse them under cold water, shake off excess moisture, and cut them to a length similar to the bell pepper strips.
Step 5
Lay one seasoned beef slice flat. Place a moderate amount of the julienned bell peppers and king oyster mushrooms near one edge of the beef slice. Avoid overfilling, as it will make rolling difficult.
Step 6
Starting from the edge with the filling, tightly roll the beef slice around the vegetables, similar to how you would roll sushi or kimbap. Ensure the roll is firm to prevent the filling from falling out.
Step 7
Repeat the rolling process with the remaining beef and vegetable ingredients until all are used. Preparing all the rolls at once can streamline the cooking process.
Step 8
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, water, and oligosaccharide. Whisk until well blended to create the dipping sauce. For a touch of spice, stir in a small amount of fresh wasabi or mustard according to your preference.
Step 9
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a little cooking oil. Carefully place the beef rolls seam-side down in the hot pan. This helps to seal the rolls and prevent them from unraveling.
Step 10
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook the beef rolls slowly, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking. Cooking on high heat can burn the outside before the inside is cooked through.
Step 11
Continue to roll the beef rolls gently, ensuring all sides are browned to a delicious golden-brown color. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the beef is cooked through and looks appetizing.
Step 12
Once the beef rolls are beautifully browned on all sides, they are ready. You can enjoy them hot off the pan or let them cool slightly before slicing.
Step 13
Serve the warm beef and vegetable rolls with the prepared dipping sauce for a delightful meal or a tasty appetizer!
