Beef dishes are always good. Such meat is considered dietary due to the balance of fats, proteins, carbohydrates and trace elements. Do not be afraid to gain weight by eating beef. Yes, it is high in calories. But, digesting it, the human body spends a lot of energy, so fats from
such food is not put off. But in order for the dishes to be tasty, you must correctly choose the meat, and then cook it correctly. For baking, beef tenderloin is best. This is explained by the fact that the part of the animal’s body from where such meat is cut is practically not subjected to stress. As a result, cooked beef tenderloin is never tough.
Steaks with tomatoes
For four servings, you will need about one kilogram of meat. Wash the beef tenderloin and divide into pieces 1-1.5 cm thick. Lightly beat them with a kitchen hammer. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Fold the steaks in a glass dish and leave them in it for half an hour. This must be done in order to avoid the “salt crust” effect.
Then heat vegetable oil to a boil in a pan. You will need it about fifty grams. Dip steaks into it and fry on both sides, for five minutes each. After this, the meat must be brought to full readiness in the oven. Its temperature should be at least 170 degrees. Put the steaks on a baking sheet, simmer them in the oven for 15 minutes.
While the beef tenderloin in the oven gains its softness and tenderness,
prepare a sauce for her. Finely chop 6 cloves of garlic, a few sprigs of thyme and three to four tomatoes. All this must be immersed in the oil left over from the steaks, sautéed over low heat for 15-20 minutes.
Put the prepared meat from the oven on large plates. Add the tomato, garlic and thyme sauce to the steaks. Serve to the table.
Beef tenderloin is good not only after cooking it in the oven. It also makes an excellent kebab. But if it is not cooked correctly, then it, like other dishes from beef tenderloin, can turn out to be tough. Therefore, we recommend using our recipe.
Barbecue with mineral water
Rinse and cut the meat into square pieces. It will take about 2 kg. Fold the kebab in a bowl, cut 5-6 onions into rings, add to the meat. Salt and pepper with black pepper. Mix everything well. At the end, add 0.5 cups of mineral table water. It will make the beef soft and reduce pickling time.
Beef tenderloin is also suitable for cooking steaks. Their recipe is very similar to the steak recipe (except for braising in the oven). But just fried meat can be tough. To avoid this, pickle sliced beef for a couple of hours in a brine consisting of water (1 liter), sugar (0.5 cups), salt (1 teaspoon), juice of half a lemon. Then fry the steaks in boiling vegetable oil over medium heat. Serve meat with potatoes. But do not forget about cholesterol: we recommend steaks, steaks, barbecue to eat only with raw vegetables. Enjoy your meal!
