{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Steak Bun (salad)

 

i think this  looks  wonderful  has anyone ever tried anything  like this?

Steak Bun

Steak Bun
Burris, Ken
Provided by:

serves 6
334 calories/serving
"Bun" is a Vietnamese noodle dish typically made with cold rice noodles, lots of crunchy vegetables and thinly sliced beef or pork all tossed in a sweet and tangy sauce. It's perfect for a hot summer night. Serve with sliced mango and iced mint green tea.

Ingredients

Directions

  • 1. Heat oil in a large skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium-high heat until shimmering. Reduce heat to medium, add steak and cook, turning once, until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest on a clean cutting board for 5 minutes.
  • 2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook rice noodles until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes or according to the package directions. Drain the noodles and rinse under cold water.
  • 3. Whisk vinegar, fish sauce and sugar to taste in a large bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Slice the steak into thin matchsticks. Add the steak and any accumulated juice to the bowl along with the noodles, cabbage, carrot, radishes, basil and/or mint and peanuts; toss to combine. Serve immediately.
  • Note: Fish sauce is a pungent Southeast Asian condiment made from salted, fermented fish. Find it in the Asian-food section of large supermarkets and in Asian specialty markets. We use Thai Kitchen fish sauce, lower in sodium than other brands (1,190 mg per tablespoon), in our recipe testing and nutritional analyses.

Fennel & Orange Salad with Toasted Pistachios

 

Fennel & Orange Salad with Toasted Pistachios
Provided by:

186 calories/serving
The salty, rich taste of toasted, chopped pistachios is the perfect accent to the sweet fennel and tangy citrus flavors of this elegant salad.

Ingredients

  • 2 navel oranges, peeled, quartered and thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 small bulb fennel, quartered, cored and very thinly sliced crosswise (about 2 1/2 cups)
  • 1 cup very thinly sliced radishes (about 8 radishes) or diced peeled jicama (see Ingredient note)
  • 1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or pistachio oil
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 6 tablespoons shelled salted pistachio nuts, toasted and chopped

Directions

  • Combine orange slices, fennel, radishes (or jicama), cilantro, oil, lime juice, salt and pepper in a decorative bowl. Gently toss to mix. Just before serving, sprinkle nuts over salad.
  • Ingredient Note: Jicama is a round root vegetable with thin brown skin and white crunchy flesh. It has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor and can be found in the produce section from November to May.

{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Sesame Tuna Salad

 

Sesame Tuna Salad
 
Provided by:
total
prep
228 calories/serving
 
Toasted sesame oil transforms a humble staple like canned tuna into an elegant supper. We love the crunch of napa cabbage in this salad, but romaine lettuce would also work if you happen to have that on hand.

Ingredients

Directions

  • 1. Whisk vinegar (or lemon juice), canola oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and ginger in a small bowl.
  • 2. Combine 3 tablespoons of the dressing with tuna, peas and scallions in a medium bowl.
  • 3. Divide cabbage among 4 plates. Mound one-fourth of the tuna mixture (about 1/2 cup) in the center of each plate and garnish with radishes, cilantro and sesame seeds. Drizzle with the remaining dressing (about 2 tablespoons per salad) and season with pepper.
