Meat selection and preliminary preparation

When choosing beef for frying, you must follow two selection criteria:

• freshness (the younger the meat, the less time it will take to prepare and cook it);
• juiciness (the fact is that when frying, the fibers of the meat lose moisture, so pieces of tenderloin - seemingly the best part of the carcass - are completely unsuitable).

It is best to buy a spatula or a thin edge for cooking in a frying pan - then the dish will turn out very juicy and tender.

But even if it was not possible to purchase young beef, this can be easily corrected with the help of preliminary preparation. And here you can go two ways:

• soak the meat in milk (2 liters per 1 kg of beef);
• marinate.

Regarding the latter, there are several best ways to marinate beef.

3. Sprinkle the beef with the dry mixture and leave to soak for 20-25 minutes. The meat is ready for frying.

Method 2

For this marinating option, simply coat the pieces of meat with mustard and let stand for 15 minutes.

Method 3

This is the so-called Chinese beef marinade.

Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp. l. rice vinegar;
• 4 tbsp. l. soy sauce;
• 1.5 tbsp. l. grated fresh ginger;
• 1 tbsp. l. liquid honey;
• 1 tsp each turmeric and dry chili.

Preparation:

1. Mix vinegar, honey, ginger, sauce and seasonings.

Useful tips and tricks

Potatoes fried with meat in a frying pan will be beneficial for the body if the following rules are followed during preparation:

• choose potato varieties that do not fall apart during heat treatment, that is, they contain a small amount of starch;

• give preference not to freshly dug tubers, but to those that have lain for at least a month. Then the potato wedges remain intact during the frying process. Fresh tubers boil quickly (regardless of the variety), and old potatoes contain few nutrients;
• Since the dish turns out to be quite high in calories, it is recommended to use tenderloin (without fat) of cattle or poultry for its preparation. Then the calorie content will decrease;
• It is recommended to salt the dish 10-15 minutes before it is ready, then the meat and potatoes will remain juicy;
• when choosing spices, you should take into account that they should be combined with meat and potatoes;
• the thickness of the potato slices should be approximately 7-8 mm; if you cut them thinner, the slices will break when stirring the dish, and if you cut them thicker, the potatoes will take a long time to fry and absorb a lot of oil;
• To wash out excess starch (because of it, potatoes fall apart during heat treatment), the chopped tubers need to be kept in water for about 20 minutes. After this, they need to be dried with a towel. This processing will additionally reduce the calorie content of the dish (the downside is a decrease in nutritional properties);
• To preserve the meat and potato aroma, it is recommended to use refined sunflower oil or butter for frying, and it is better to use both types.

Potatoes and meat are obtained with a golden brown crust if you do not stir the ingredients too often during the cooking process, but also make sure that they do not burn. In this case, the fire should not be weak (as it will turn out to be a stew) or strong (as the ingredients will burn). You only need to place the products on a heated container with oil, then the components will turn out not only with a golden brown crust, but also more juicy. To ensure that the meat and potatoes are evenly fried, you need to use a frying pan with a thick bottom.
