Instructions:
-
Marinate the Meat: Begin by marinating the beef in a tantalizing blend of soya sauce, Worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, minced garlic, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Allow the meat to marinate for at least an hour, ensuring that every piece is infused with the irresistible flavors of the marinade.
-
Prepare the Filling: Once the meat is thoroughly marinated, spread the strips of beef on a flat surface, ready to be filled with an array of delightful ingredients. Place a strip of tomato, potato, green chili or green pepper, and a slice of bacon on each strip of meat, creating a tantalizing medley of flavors and textures.
-
Roll and Secure: Carefully roll the meat around the filling, ensuring that it is tightly secured. Use a piece of twine to tie each roll, ensuring that the filling remains intact during cooking.
-
Cook in Wok: Heat a wok over high heat and add the prepared meat rolls along with the red chilies for an extra kick of heat. Allow the rolls to cook for 5 minutes on high heat, then reduce the heat to simmer and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and tender.
-
Reduce and Coat: Once the meat is cooked, uncover the wok and increase the heat to medium-high. Allow the liquid to reduce, stirring occasionally to ensure that the thick sauce coats each roll, leaving them moist and succulent.
-
Serve: Transfer the Piggy in a Blanket rolls to a platter, removing the twine from each roll before serving. Arrange them beautifully on the platter, ready to be devoured by your eager guests. Watch as they disappear within moments, leaving everyone craving for more of this irresistible delicacy.
