I love Pinoy Bistek.

Visit http://www.pinoy-recipes.com for more mouth watering Pinoy recipe.

I think every Filipino does. Nunnie likes it a lot. This pinoy recipe is really really easy to make. I just wish that it was more affordable when I was still in the Philippines. Beef is expensive in the Philippines that is why I was not able to eat this whenever I wanted to.

This bistek or Filipino beef steak is a very simple recipe. Basically, this is just some thin strips of beef marinated in soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, and ground pepper. We, Filipinos love the combination of soy sauce and lemon juice or soy sauce and vinegar. For some reason, the combination of saltiness and sourness gives a very good flavor for any meat.

When I cooked bistek last week, I had to go to work so I left this in a covered container on the table. When I got home, Nunnie was already sleeping and I noticed that the bistek was untouched. So I thought that he probably did not like it. I felt a little sad because I cooked nothing else that day but the bistek and I was wondering what he ate for supper if he did not like the bistek. I ended up eating the beef steak by myself. I ate it for 2 days, divided in 6 meals.

When we were narrating the video, he asked me where was the bistek. I told him I ate it all. And he was so surprised by my response. He knows that I am on a special diet and I could not eat just any food. So he thought I ate it all and did not think about my health issue. I told him I ate that food for 6 separate meals because I thought that he did not like it. And then he said he never saw it. So I ended up cooking another batch of bistek for him and he really likes it.

  • Looks a bit too salty. What I like to do is after marination I dont pour in the whole marination along with it. I usually dilute it with a little water to kill the saltiness but then again to each his own. Cheers.. Filipino pride!!!!

  • shit that must be salty as hell

  • sorry dude but..--- i think its to much soy sauce and you should cook the meat fried not with the marinate.. :(

  • So...white...

    The beef needs to be thinner than that! Way thinner...then again, my family's recipe also involves some MSG haha

  • looks like ass flap
