How can anyone be a vegetarian?

Actually the whole quote was "A meal like this makes me wonder how anyone can be a vegetarian", spoken by my son.  The dish was very enjoyable and I have included it before, Beef Salad with Asian Dressing.

Of course there needs to be a twist! Two of the ingredients this recipe calls for are sesame oil and a chili.  Does anyone else make shopping lists them leave the list at home?  I do it too often!  Did pretty well today, the only thing I forgot from the list was a chili.  Once I stared cooking I discovered I was out of sesame oil which I thought I had.  Thanks to Jane Z I have O & Co's chili oil  - that seemed like the perfect substitute for the 2 missing ingredients. Recipe calls for skirt steak but I always use flank steak, I prefer it.
A little different tonight, of course, but still excellent. Another thing I love about this dish is that it reminds me of my nephew, Sean, who I made this for on one of his visits.  He is an excellent 'braaier', so he cooked the meat and really enjoyed the dish.  Cheers Sean!

NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A STEAK SANDWICH!

 

I have 2 sisters and when we were teenagers my mother quite often made us hamburgers on a Saturday night. We were all doing different things at different times, so she made the patties and set out the 'fixings' and the electric griddle thing so we could each cook our own burger at a time to suit our plans for the evening.  With that as inspiration we had steak sandwiches for dinner tonight, each a little different.  Here is Joseph's, which he declared to be delicious.  Steak was sirloin, as it was on special at our wonderful Wilton Village Market  today and the bread has to be from Michaelina's,  one of 2 great bakeries we have right here in Wilton. Only thing I got wrong is that I cooked it for him, really need to work on that!
