How to prepare Beefsteak with mushroom cream sauce

• 1

  Prepare and marinate the beef

  After buying beef, to prevent losing its quality, quickly rinse it in water and use a clean damp cloth to wipe the beef piece once before proceeding to cook.

  Effective tips to eliminate the smell of beef:

  • Method 1: To reduce the smell in the meat while making it softer and tastier, after washing the beef with water, you can wash it again with alcohol or soak the meat in alcohol for about 15 minutes.
  • Method 2: You can roast a piece of ginger until cooked, crush it, then rub it on the surface of the meat for about 5 – 7 minutes and rinse it with clean water.
  • Method 3: Use lemon or vinegar to rub on the beef for 5 – 7 minutes and then rinse with clean water.

  After cleaning the beef, cut it into pieces about the thickness of one finger.

  Next, sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of salt along with 1 teaspoon of olive oil evenly over the surface of the beef piece and let it marinate for about 5 minutes.

  Tip: Remember to apply just a little salt; if you use too much, the meat will be salty and overpower the natural sweetness of the beef.
