Finger Steaks

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Cut the beef sirloin steak into strips about 1 inch wide and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the cold water and egg until well combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until you have a smooth batter.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Batter and Fry the Steak

    Dip each steak strip into the batter, allowing excess to drip off, then carefully place it into the hot oil. Fry in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the finger steaks hot with BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
