Fried Meat with Mustard and Eggs
May 9th, 2015 in Beef, Chicken, Main Dishes, Pork by Julia Volhina
The magic of this recipe is in the fact that you can prepare everything for it a day before and then just fry the meat when the time is right.
You can actually store marinated meat in fridge for longer and just fry a portion you need every time you need it, which may save time eventually.
Results may vary depending on the taste of mustard you use. So use the one you like :).
The same goes for peppers – I used a mixture I had on hands: red pepper, black pepper, white pepper, coriander, etc, but you can use whatever you like the most.
Choose softer cut of beef for this recipe, pork or chicken may work too.
Beef Liver with Sour Cream
March 28th, 2015 in Beef, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
Let’s bring liver back to the table: for as nutritious as it is, it doesn’t get nearly enough of the spotlight.
This easy recipe will help you to add all the goodness beef liver has into your diet.
I noticed that in US it is easier to find pre-sliced and cleaned liver, but in case you buy a whole piece, you will need to clean it, remove hard vessel parts and slice it up before continuing with the recipe.
Liver tastes great with boiled buckwheat, this is my first choice for a side dish for any main course with liver.
Meat Stew with Beans
January 31st, 2015 in Beef, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
If you are looking for quick recipe with meat – try meat stew with beans.
It is pretty quick and is not too complicated to do: cooking time will depend on the meat cut you use, but in average it is between 30 and 45 mins.
I used beef (chuck roast cut) for this one, but pork will work for this recipe as well.
Onion Marinated Roast Beef
April 19th, 2014 in Beef, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
I am trying to avoid fried foods for some time, and while actually doing so, I am amazed with how many recipes I use involve frying.
So I was staying in front of meat counter figuring out what to cook. And then lady behind the counter suggested to roast some beef.
And this is a recipe I decided to go with: roast beef marinated with onions, black pepper, coriander, allspice and bay leaves.
In addition to ingredients this recipe also required an oven bag or dutch oven with a lid.
Veal Rolls with Pear
March 15th, 2014 in Beef, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
I saw veal rolls with pear meal in some TV show once and wanted to try it ever since.
The combination of ingredients in this recipe is unusual, veal is pretty expensive and somewhat hard to find here in US. This is probably the reason why I got to this recipe only now.
I used veal scallopini here, because they are already sliced, and it is easier to pick meat pieces of right amount and size. But you can also use whole piece of veal meat and slice it yourself. As for the pear, use ripe fragrant pear for better results.
Meat Stew with Beer, Mushrooms and Vegetables
August 17th, 2013 in Beef, Main Dishes, Pork by Julia Volhina
Meat stewed with mushrooms and vegetables in beer. It works good for dinner, left overs can be reheated for lunch. Boiled potato side dishes will go good with such meat.
I used beef for this recipe, but it will work good with either pork or beef. Tomato paste or canned tomatoes can be used instead of fresh tomatoes.
Amount of beer to use for this recipe will depend on the size of the pot you use, it should be enough to cover meat completely while cooking.
Beef Gyros with Vegetables and Spices
May 11th, 2013 in Beef, Main Dishes by Julia Volhina
Beef sirloin steak meat marinated in gyros spices and vegetables turns out tender (if meat is of good quality) and somewhat spicy.
Meat needs to marinate for couple of hours, overnight is good, but it can go longer. I usually prepare meat and sear portion of it right before serving, and I store remaining marinated meat in fridge until I need it next time.
Accompanying beef gyros with Tzatziki sauce is a good choice, spices in meat and sauce blend in well.
