Black Jewels ~ Sizzling Waygu beef cubes
63When you are absolutely famished after a few drinks with you mates at the pub, don’t let them talk you into the usual KFC joint round the corner and regret that you didn’t make the most with beautiful company.
Instead, invite those ladies back home and assure them dinner is not going to be your usual piece of meat. They deserve nothing but the best!
Ingredients:
1. 400gms Australian Wagyu sirloin (450days grain fed – yeaaah!)
2. 2 tablespoon of premium oyster sauce
3. 20 gm butter
4. 5 cloves garlic
5. Salt and fresh black pepper to taste.
Method:
1. Peel and shave the whole garlic cloves with a mandolin into fine slices and fry in hot vegetable oil until golden brown. Then set aside to let cool.
(Tip: It is extremely easy to over-cook the garlic chips so ensure the oil is sufficiently hot and removing garlic chips when it is beginning to turn light brown in colour).
2. Just before heading off to the pub to meet your mates, marinate the meat with the oyster sauce, ensuring all surfaces are evenly coated and leave the meat in the fridge.
3. Heat 3 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a hot frying pan until it is smoking, then gently slide in the sirloin steak.
4. Sear the steaks for 1 - 2 minutes until slightly charred on one side and then flip onto other side.
(Tip: Ensure the steaks are sufficiently charred on one side before flipping because you must only flip the steak over ONCE for medium-rare steak).
5. When the steaks are charred on both sides, remove and let rest for 3 minutes.
6. With a very sharp knife, cut the steaks into good bite-size cubes.
7. Heat butter in pan and return steak cubes and fry in intense heat, adding a pinch of salt to taste. The remove the steak cubes when slightly brown onto serving plate.
8. Sprinkle freshly cracked black pepper and a twist of lemon juice.

Beef this good will go with just about anything! Thanks for dropping by again. Cheers.
YUM,, it looks great. I think Julia Childs cooked while drunk. :)
Thanks jiberish, but who's Julia Childs?
You did NOT just say "who's Julia Childs"??? :) She's the woman who brought French cooking techniques to America. She was the Goddess of the kitchen, and the author of The Joy of Cooking. Oh, and she was always semi-drunk on her TV cooking shows!
Anyway, this sounds DEELISH, the hub is great and the pictures are fabulous. Is Waygu beef easy to get do you think over here in the US?
Hey Irohner! Sorry lol!! I guess she would be the equivalent of a Margaret Fulton here in Australia. I like the thought of her being semi-drunk...I love to have a drink when I cook, it's so therapeutic, and to think I've already started on the happy hour before all my friends arrive! There are many grades of Wagyu and I'm not sure if the system is the same in the US. Personally, I don't prefer the top because the marbling can be excessive. It should really be cooked over a very hot BBQ so that the flames caramelizes the fat a little to give it the charred flavour.
Hi awsydney....the dishes that you've recommended looks great:)
Oh this sounds delicious! I love oyster sauce and garlic. You must be an excellent cook. When are you inviting me for dinner?
Thanks Michelle.
Hi Asianlight, oyster sauce is a versatile ingredient and very flavoursome. Dinner can be whenever the heart desires :)
Wow, this caught my eye and who but a vegan could resist this> Great. Never had Wagyu Beef. Great Angus here and I have the sauce and homegrown garlic. mmmm
Thanks Ralwus, glad you like it, tell me how you go with it!
I will. I do a mean Brisket West Texas Style and Pork Butt too, both smoked.
Brisket is fine, but pork butt??? i'm not too sure! :)

Geez! Now you're talking, awsydney! Be careful about advising some of us to cook while drunk! It can make for front page news, believe you me! I'd prefer having this with Beer Lao! Yum! Thanks again, good sir!
