This dish is based on the Quintessential Russian-Jewish way of cooking beef. The basic version is braised, beef patties studded with garlic and onion, but more vegetables such as green bell peppers, mushrooms and beansprouts can be added to the pan.

Ingredients

  • 500 g/ lb lean minced (ground) beef
  • 4–6 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped

Method

  1. Place the minced beef, garlic and chopped onion in a bowl and mix well. Season with soy sauce and pepper and form into four large or eight small patties.
  2. Heat a non-stick pan, add a little oil, if you like, then add the patties and cook until browned. Splash over soy sauce.
