Delicious Steak Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients
Directions
- Mix together all the ingredients for the marinade, add the steak and leave to marinate for a few hours (but no longer than 8 hours). Remove the steaks from the marinade, then strain it and set aside.
- Warm the rolls in a medium oven. Heat a heavy-based frying pan until very, very hot, then add the olive oil and fry the steaks very quickly. If your pan is hot enough, they will need to be turned within a minute. Remove the steaks and keep warm, then add the dry ingredients from the marinade to the pan with some salt.
- Cut the rolls in half and arrange the cos lettuce and then the steaks on the lower halves. Add the strained marinade liquid to the pan and let this bubble and reduce a little, then pour into the top halves of the rolls. Close the sandwiches and eat immediately, with both hands.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can I substitute for rump steak in this recipe?
You can substitute rump steak with other cuts such as sirloin, flank, or even ribeye, ensuring they are thinly sliced for quick cooking. If you prefer a leaner option, chicken breast or turkey can be used instead, but the flavor and texture will differ.
How should I store leftover steak sandwiches?
Leftover steak sandwiches can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. It's best to store the components separately if possible—keep the steak and the rolls apart and assemble them just before eating to maintain freshness.
What should I do if my steak is tough after cooking?
If your steak turns out tough, it may be due to overcooking or the cut of meat used. To prevent this, ensure your pan is extremely hot before adding the steak and avoid cooking it for too long. Also, consider marinating for the full 8 hours to help tenderize the meat, or choose a more tender cut for better results.
