Beef steak with a mix of boiled vegetables, a complete main dish in one step. The vinegar and ginger marinade breaks down the meat fibers and makes it tender. The vegetables keep their color and value when added at the end with the remaining broth.
Beef steak with vegetables is a practical dish that suits those who want a complete meal without many ingredients.
The vinegar marinade before cooking gives tenderness without the need for mechanical pounding.
Make slits in the meat pieces with a knife and marinate them with the salt, pepper, vinegar, ginger, and oil for at least an hour.
Boil all the vegetables with the garlic and onion, then drain them and set aside.
In a pan on the heat, take the steak out of the refrigerator, slice it, then add it with the marinade and brown it on high heat on both sides until cooked.
Add the boiled vegetables and stir the mixture for 10 minutes, then serve hot.
The glycemic index (GI) measures how quickly a food raises blood sugar, while the glycemic load (GL) measures how much a full serving raises it. Together they give the complete picture.
A low value (≤55) means a gradual rise in blood sugar — the most suitable range for diabetes and insulin resistance.
Glycemic load reflects the impact of the full serving. To lower it: take half a serving, or pair the recipe with a source of protein and fiber.
* Percent Daily Values are based on a 2,000-calorie diet per FDA food-label reference values — your daily needs may be higher or lower. Values are derived from the recipe's ingredients via the USDA database.
The most common problems when preparing Beef Steak with Mixed Vegetables, and how to fix them:
Extend the marination to three hours and lower the pan heat when browning.
Boil them in boiling water for only 4 minutes, then drain immediately.
Keeps for two days. Reheat only the meat and add the vegetables fresh.
