For my first "try it" I started with something that i have already been working on for a few weeks... making steak. This sounds like an easy enough task but there are two factors to consider. 1) i don't just want to make a steak. I want to make a good steak, a great steak. 2) i am a vegetarian. I do not currently eat steak nor have i eaten steak since i was a little kid. I therefore have to rely on Todd's taste buds.
How i made my steak:
I bought a Cab Eye Round Steak, poked holes in it with a fork, added a little olive oil and Montreal steak seasoning. I then put the steak in a hot pan for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Next i put a pat of butter in the pan and basted the steak for another minute or two.
Outcome: (according to Todd's Palate)
- Steak was good
- Slightly overdone
- Seasoning was good
Overall the steak turned out well. Although it was a little too overdone. I may in the future cook it for less time on each side or try another cut of meat. Any suggestions?
This is great, i would suggest maybe a NY strip(better cut of meet) I also use a grill pan intead of a regular frying pan and heat up the pan with a little bit of oil.
ReplyDeleteI would suggest inviting me over to test it next time. Oh, and A1 always hides problems with the steak.
ReplyDeleteI would also suggest inviting Patrikki over for a taste test. And you could use a grill pan and cook in it the oven. Those are very tasty.
