Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make beef and sesame salad? To prepare a salad with fried beef, prepare the necessary ingredients. It is better to take tomatoes of small diameter, cherry or Baku tomatoes are suitable for this (they are as round as cherry tomatoes, but one and a half times larger), plum tomatoes are also suitable. You can take regular large ones, but with small ones the salad looks more interesting. Wash and dry all vegetables and herbs.

First, prepare the meat. Rinse the beef and dry it. Cut off all films and veins, if any. Cut the meat into small portions.

Step 3

Step 3
Place beef in a bowl. Pour in soy sauce and vegetable oil. Stir and leave to marinate for 30-40 minutes. You can mix soy sauce and vegetable oil in a bowl in advance. Thanks to this marinating, the meat becomes less tough. In this case, soy sauce completely replaces salt, so there is no need to add additional salt to meat and salad.

(or more) soy sauce and vegetable oil and simmer the meat a little more.
