Beef wrapped Enokitake

.
Everytime when i shop at Carrefour Supermarket, i will go crazy over buying food. Because of the varieties of food available there, it is like a food heaven for a food lover like me. Because i stay in the outskirt, supermarkets here only sell the basic things, you can't really find something fancy. So yesterday when i was at Carrefour, i bought so much that i overstock my .fridge (because these are really extras) again. I bought beef for sukiyaki , enokitake (金針菇), baby asparagus, arugula (again? Yes, because i really love it), cheese, pepperoni, etc etc... Yes, i am gonna make pizza again this weekend.

Actually i wanted to make beef wrapped enoki and asparagus for dinner. However after i finished wrapping the enoki, i thought it was too much. So i did not continue with the beef wrapped asparagus. But in the end, my DH like it so much that it was not enough. I should have wrapped the asparagus too.

Beef wrapped enokitake

.

- Approx 300g-400g of Beef for sukiyaki* (because i didn't weigh them)

- 2 small packs of Enokitake

.

Marinate

.

- 1 1/2 tbs teriyake sauce

- 1/2 tbs worchestire sauce

- 2 tbs mirin

- 1 tsp sugar

.

Method

.

1) Marinate the beef for about 30min than use it to wrap the enoki (about 2cm per bunch).

2) Pan fry each side for about 2-3min or until brown on medium-high heat.

3) Sprinkle toasted sesame seed (optional). Ready to serve.

.

** If you want additional dish, you can fry asparagus with the same pan (without washing), using the leftover oil and juice. This produce very aromatic asparagus as side dish.

.

* You can also use bacon to wrap enoki, just omit the marinate will do.

I saved some of the beef and asparagus to make a simple lunch for myself today.

Simple Stir Fry Cellophane Noodle with beef and asparagus

Just marinate the beef with teriyaki sauce, light soy sauce, sesame oil for 15min. Fry some garlic, add in the beef, stir fry for about 30 seconds, add in asparagus. Toss every few second. When the beef is almost cooked, add in 2-3 tbs of water and the cellophane noodle (冬粉), plus one tbs light soy sauce. Cook till water being absorbed and cellophane turns transparent in colour. Add toasted sesame seed and enjoy!
