Inside out moo shu: a twist on my favorite classic Chinese dish! |
3lb sliced top round (look for braciola/milanese beef)
sea salt and ground pepper
2tbs macadamia nut oil
2 large eggs, beaten (omega-3 enriched if you can find them)
1/2c sliced green onion, green and white parts (about 5)
3tbs minced fresh garlic
3tbs minced fresh ginger
tbs sesame oil
1/2 head cabbage, shredded
1/4c white wine vinegar
2tbs soy sauce (gluten free)
1tbs coconut aminos (omit or add more soy sauce if you don't have this)
Directions:
(Note: You can marinate your steak for an hour if desired. Place it in a ziptop bag with a little vinegar, soy sauce and sesame oil. I didn't marinate mine because I didn't have the time. But it's a delicious option)
1. In a large skillet, heat 1tbs macadamia nut oil over medium high heat. Add eggs and stir fry until soft scrambled. Add onion, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Cook another minute. Add cabbage and stir well. Add white wine vinegar, soy sauce, and coconut aminos and stir frequently until cabbage is soft and liquid is absorbed.
2. Meanwhile, make your beef rolls. Pat meat dry with paper towels. Cut each slice in half. Season with sea salt and fresh ground pepper. Place about 1/4-1/3c cabbage mixture in the center of each beef piece. Starting at the narrow end of the meat, roll up filling it tightly. Secure with toothpicks horizontally (like sewing it together) so you can place it seam side down when cooking. Repeat with all of your beef slices.
3. Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add a bit of macadamia nut oil over medium high heat. Cook your beef rolls, seam side down, for about 4 minutes (or until cooked and deep brown). Turn over and cook another 4 minutes. I did them in batches of 4 (do as many at a time as your pan holds comfortably). Drizzle with a little sesame oil and soy sauce if desired. Serve hot.
