KO Fried steak is always a classic dish in many people’s kitchens, and it takes some skill to achieve the effect of being crispy on the outside while it is tender on the inside. Today, I will share with you how to fry delicious steak in a panela de aço inoxidável. With these skills, it can be very easy for anyone to make steaks that are crispy on the outside and tender inside, just like a chef.
Materials Preparation:
- A good quality steak (rib eye, fillet, New York steak, etc.)
- Olive oil or butter
- Sea salt
- Black pepper
- Aromatic spices of your choice (such as rosemary, thyme, garlic)
Choosing the Right Steak
First of all, it is very important to choose a high-quality steak. It is recommended to choose a steak with a thickness of 1.5-2.5 cm, so that it is easier to control the heat of frying. Before frying the steak, it is best to take it out of the refrigerator in advance and let it stand at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes to let its temperature return to room temperature.
Preheat Stainless Steel Pan
Compared with cast-iron pans, stainless steel pans are less controllable for many people; actually, it also can fry a delicious steak if you master the skills. First, you need to get the pot hot. Heat the stainless steel pan over high mediums very well. If the pan is hot, the oil will not stick to the pan, and the steak will be fried well. You can check the temperature in a pan by water drops-when water drops drip in a pan, the drops start evaporating right there and then; that means the pan is hot enough.
Processing Steak
Remember seasoning before frying a steak: light sprinkles evenly with sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper; lightly tap in so you will see increased flavor come about. Add fresh rosemary or thyme, and sauté minced garlic for an overall highly aromatic experience. Then dip in some butter or, rather, drizzle on a decent-quality cold olive oil across its surface to further help draw your meat aromatically, as suggested by people within culinary expertise. The choice of oil will affect the flavor of the frying.
Add Oil and Heat
Pour a little olive oil or butter into the preheated stainless steel pot and swirl the pot to evenly coat the entire bottom of the pot. The amount of oil should be enough, but not too much to avoid waste.
Grilled Steak
When the oil starts to smoke, gently place the steak in the pan. Make sure the steak is in full contact with the bottom of the pan and avoid flipping the steak. Depending on the thickness of the steak and personal preference, the frying time is about 2-4 minutes per side.
- Rare: Fry for about 2 minutes on each side, the surface is crispy and the inside is bright red.
- Medium Rare: Fry for 3 minutes on each side, the outside is crispy and the inside is tender and juicy.
- Medium: Fry for 4 minutes on each side, the outside is crispy and the inside is cooked, and the meat is slightly firm.
- Well Done: Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side, the inside of the steak is fully cooked, but it may be a bit dry and hard
Flipping Tips
When frying steak, never turn it over too often. Let each side fully contact the bottom of the pan to form a beautiful charred crust. When turning it over, use tongs or a spatula to turn it over gently to avoid puncturing the steak and prevent the gravy from running out.
Add Spices and Butter
If you like the steak to have a stronger aroma, you can add some herbs and a few pieces of butter in the last 1-2 minutes of frying. Then, you can use a spoon to continuously pour the hot oil and herb butter mixture in the pan on the surface of the steak to increase the flavor.
Completion
After the steak is done, don’t rush to cut it. Letting it sit for a few minutes is key. The time it takes to let the juices inside the steak spread evenly.
When you cut the steak with a sharp knife after it has rested, remember to cut perpendicular to the meat fibers. This will not only make the steak more tender, but also perfectly preserve its delicious taste.
Resumo
It is not complicated to fry steak in a stainless steel pan. If you master the preheating, oil temperature and heat control, you can make a perfect steak that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. With simple seasoning and careful cooking skills, you can enjoy a delicious steak at home that is comparable to restaurant standards. Let’s enjoy the fun of cooking in the kitchen!
