Postup

Krok za krokem

1
Season the thinly sliced beef with salt and black pepper.
Přibližně 5 min
Poznámka kuchaře: For easier slicing, place the beef steak in the freezer for 20-30 minutes until it's firm but not frozen solid.
2
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter for the sauce. Stir in the tomato paste and paprika and cook for one minute until fragrant.
Přibližně 2 min
3
Whisk the water into the saucepan to create a smooth sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly. Keep warm.
Přibližně 10 min
4
While the sauce simmers, lightly toast the cubed pide bread in a large, dry skillet over medium heat until just crisp. Remove and set aside.
Přibližně 5 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Alternatively, you can spread the bread on a baking sheet and toast in a 180°C (350°F) oven for 5-7 minutes.
5
In the same large skillet, cook the halved tomatoes and whole green peppers over medium-high heat until lightly charred on all sides. Set aside for garnish.
Přibližně 5 min
6
Add the olive oil to the skillet. Working in batches, add the sliced beef and sauté quickly for 1-2 minutes until just cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Přibližně 3 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Cooking in batches ensures the meat sears nicely rather than steaming.
7
To assemble, divide the toasted pide cubes among four serving plates.
Přibližně 1 min
8
Arrange a generous layer of the cooked beef slices over the pide bread.
Přibližně 1 min
9
Spoon the warm tomato sauce over the beef, allowing it to soak into the bread below.
Přibližně 1 min
10
Place a large dollop of yogurt on the side of each plate and garnish with the charred tomato and pepper.
Přibližně 1 min
11
In a small pan, melt the butter for the garnish over medium-high heat until it is hot and foaming.
Přibližně 1 min
12
Immediately pour the hot butter over the meat and sauce, and serve right away.
Poznámka kuchaře: The sizzle from the hot butter is a classic part of the dish's presentation.
