Chaliapin Steak Don
Description
In Chaliapin Steak Don, a steak is scored with shallow slits to help tenderize and absorb flavors. It is then surrounded by a mixture of finely diced onions and salt and marinated overnight. Before cooking, the onions are brushed off the steak, which is seasoned with black pepper and pan-fried until browned to preferred doneness.
The reserved onions are stir-fried in the pan with soy sauce and red wine until the liquid evaporates and the onions are brown around the edges but still retain some shape. Butter is added for richness.
The cooked steak topped with the caramelized onions is served over cooked short grain Japanese rice. Garnishes include umeboshi, a salty and tangy pickled plum minced into the dish, and chopped scallions for freshness. The combination of tender meat, savory sweet onions, and tangy condiments makes for a flavorful and harmonious dish.
Ingredients
For Chaliapin Steak
- 270 grams steak
- 350 grams onion finely diced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- black pepper
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- ⅓ cup red wine
- 2 tablespoons butter cultured, unsalted
To serve
- 2 ervings short grain rice 2 rice cooker cups cooked in rice cooker, Japanese
- 70 grams umeboshi (10% sodium, pitted and minced)
- scallions (chopped for garnish)
Instructions
- Cut slits ⅓ of the way into the steak ¼-inch apart. Flip the steak over and repeat, holding the knife at the same angle.
- Mix the onions and salt and surround the steak in onions. Cover and marinate in the fridge overnight.
- When the steak is done marinating, brush off all of the onions from the meat and set the onions aside. Season both sides of the steak with black pepper.
- Preheat a frying pan over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the vegetable oil, and then add the steak.
- Fry on one side until nicely browned, and then flip and fry the other side.
- When the steak is cooked to your liking, transfer it to a plate and let it rest while you prepare the onions.
- Turn down the heat and add the onions. Stir-fry these until they've started to brown around the edges, but they still hold their shape (about 6 minutes).
- Add the soy sauce and continue stir-frying until the liquid has evaporated and the soy sauce starts to smell toasty.
- Add the red wine and boil until it no longer smells like alcohol.
- To finish the sauce, add the butter and vigorously whisk it in to thicken the sauce.
- For the rice, fold the minced umeboshi into the hot rice until evenly distributed.
- Fill two bowls with the ume rice, and then top with the sliced steak. Finish each bowl with a mound of onions, and garnish with some chopped scallions.
