HOW TO COOK CAMOTE CUE WITH MARGARINE

How To Cook Camote Cue with margarine –Yesterday I posted my banana cue recipe prepared with margarine and sugar. This time I am going to share with you the Camote Cue dish similar to what I shared with you yesterday. In this recipe we are as well going to use margarine and bits of sugar. Others find the traditional Camote Cue cooking procedure a little tricky especially the process when turning the sugar into caramel. This alternative way of cooking Camote Cue does not require further knowledge in cooking and it is easier than the traditional one but the taste is different since we are not turning the sugar into caramelized substance, instead we are using Margarine and plain sugar. Here is how to cook Camote Cue with Margarine:

Ingredients

8 pieces of medium size sweet potatoes (Camote)

300ml of oil

¼ cup of brown sugar

½ cup of Margarine

10 pieces of bbq sticks

Cooking Procedure

1. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice into saucer-like pieces (½ inch thick).
2. In a pan, heat oil.
3. Drop the sweet potatoes by batches and fry until the sweet potatoes are cooked.
4. Spread Margarine all over the sweet potatoes and scatter sugar all over it.
5. Get the sweet potatoes skewered on the bbq sticks and serve.

HOW TO COOK BISTEK (BEEF STEAK)

How To Cook Bistek (Beef Steak) – I have shared with you my Bistek recipe before using beef tenderloin but others don’t like the idea of only the people who can afford beef tenderloin are the ones who can eat this dish. Well, that is not true. Let’s say we can’t afford to buy beef tenderloin, or at least we can but we don’t want to spend little extra for it, does that mean we can’t eat beef at all? I don’t agree with them because beef tenderloin is not the only very beef in this world like for example we can buy beef spare ribs in way cheaper price. That’s how I cmae up with the idea of using spare ribs in cooking Beef Steak. I just want to remind you that make sure you’re going to pre-cook the ribs in a pressure cooker to make it tender. Here is how to cook Bistek (Beef Steak) using spare ribs:

Ingredients

1 kilo of Beef spare ribs (cut into serving pieces)

½ cup of low sodium soy sauce

6 cloves of garlic (minced)

3 medium size onions (sliced into rings)

1 teaspoon of ground pepper

½ cup of calamansi extract (lemon extract will do)

Cooking oil

½ cup of spring onions (chopped)

Cooking Procedure

1.      In a bowl, combine soy sauce, pepper, garlic and beef.

2.      Leave to marinate and refrigirate for 4 hours.

3.      After 4 hours, remove the marinade and drain the beef.

4.      Boil the ribs in a pressure cooker to make it tender.

5.      In a pan, heat oil and fry the beef until the beef is cooked.

6.      Pour into the same pan the marinade and calamansi extract.

7.      Stir a little and simmer until the sauce is thickened.

8.      Put in the serving plate.
