I love weekend dinners at home. I like to use the extra hours to make some of Sterling's favorite meals that take a little longer to make than week nights allow. Today we started our day with some errands and a hike up Stone Mountain, and then spent the afternoon relaxing and watching our favorite show, Power, while I made these veggie steak roll ups with a sweet soy mirin glaze. It was a great ending to a great weekend.
Serves: 2 Cook Time: 15 min, plus 2 hours to marinate (or at least 20 min) Ingredients: For the veggie steak roll ups • 3/4 lb thinly sliced sirloin • 1 large red pepper, sliced into matchsticks • 1 large orange or yellow pepper, sliced into matchsticks • 1 large carrot, julienned • 4-5 green onions, thinly sliced in long strips • Salt and pepper to taste • 1/2 tsp coconut sugar or light brown sugar Tools: julienne peeler (optional, may manually cut carrots into matchsticks but it's annoying and a lot of my recipes require a julienne peeler so just get one they're inexpensive), toothpicks. For the Soy Mirin Glaze • 3 garlic, diced • 2 green onions, sliced thinly on the bias, plus more for garnish • 1/2 cup olive or vegetable oil • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce • 1/4 cup mirin plus 1 tsp for later • 3 tbsp honey • 1 tsp ginger (freshly grated or tubed) • 1/2 tsp each white and black sesame seeds (for garnish, optional) • 1-2 tsp ground red pepper powder (optional, for heat) Directions: • Pat steak dry and place in large, shallow dish. Combine all glaze ingredients and pour over steak, covering completely. Cover dish and refrigerate for 1.5 hours, then remove and bring to room temperature for 15-30 minutes. • Heat half a tsp of olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add carrots and cook for 1-2 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add peppers and cook another minute. Add green onions, then season with salt and pepper, 1 tsp of mirin, and coconut/brown sugar. Remove veggies from skillet and just slightly increase heat. • Remove steaks from dish and arrange on a cutting board- RESERVE the sauce for later. Lay a small bundle of veggies at most narrow end of steak, then roll tightly tightly inward toward wider end. Secure with toothpicks. Starting seam side down, cook steaks for 2-3 min on each side, or until desired doneness. Remove steaks from skillet and reduce heat to medium. • Add sauce to skillet and cook until liquid starts to boil, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and continue to stir frequently until thickened. Remove from heat. • Remove toothpicks from steak roll ups, then spoon sauce over top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and more green onion. • Serve hot and enjoy!

It's my first time to see thinly sliced meat being used to wrap veggies. I think it's awesome. If you will cook it, its juice will trickle down to the vegetables and make it taste superb. I don't think anyone who is opposed to cruelty will find this impressive though. I would like to be neutral here but my heart says I should be on their side. So maybe I will copy this recipe and try this on tofu skin. It tastes like beef strips.
