Savory Beef Steak with Crispy Potatoes and Lettuce

Beef Steak with Savory Sauce

Ingredients:

• 1/2 kg (about 1 lb) of beef sirloin, finely chopped
• 3 potatoes, thinly sliced and fried until crispy
• Fresh lettuce leaves, for serving
• Fried peanuts, for garnish
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 2 eggs
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon whole peppercorns
• Salt and sugar, to taste
• Sweet soy sauce, to taste
• Oyster sauce, to taste
• Cooking oil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Meat Mixture: Begin by finely chopping the garlic and peppercorns, then grinding them into a smooth paste with a pinch of salt. In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped beef with half of this seasoning paste. Reserve the remaining paste for the sauce later. Add the egg yolks to the beef mixture and mix thoroughly until well combined.

2. Form and Steam the Steaks: Shape the seasoned beef mixture into flat, round patties. Steam the patties in a steamer for about 30 minutes, or until the meat is fully cooked and has changed color.
