Спосіб приготування

Крок за кроком

  1. 1

    Season the thinly sliced beef with salt and black pepper.

    Близько 5 хв

    Примітка кухаря: For easier slicing, place the beef steak in the freezer for 20-30 minutes until it's firm but not frozen solid.

  2. 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.

    Близько 2 хв

  3. 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.

    Близько 10 хв

  4. 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.

    Близько 5 хв

    Примітка кухаря: Alternatively, you can spread the bread on a baking sheet and toast in a 180°C (350°F) oven for 5-7 minutes.

  5. 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.

    Близько 5 хв

  6. 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.

    Близько 3 хв

    Примітка кухаря: Cooking in batches ensures the meat sears nicely rather than steaming.

  7. 7

    To assemble, divide the toasted pide cubes among four serving plates.

    Близько 1 хв

  8. 8

    Arrange a generous layer of the cooked beef slices over the pide bread.

    Близько 1 хв

  9. 9

    Spoon the warm tomato sauce over the beef, allowing it to soak into the bread below.

    Близько 1 хв

  10. 10

    Place a large dollop of yogurt on the side of each plate and garnish with the charred tomato and pepper.

    Близько 1 хв

  11. 11

    In a small pan, melt the butter for the garnish over medium-high heat until it is hot and foaming.

    Близько 1 хв

  12. 12

    Immediately pour the hot butter over the meat and sauce, and serve right away.

    Примітка кухаря: The sizzle from the hot butter is a classic part of the dish's presentation.

Правильне зберігання

Зберігання
