Spicy beef over roasted sweet potato & asparagus

Making:

Spicy beef over roasted sweet potato & asparagus

1 serving prepared 

Here's what I have:


4.2 oz Sirloin tip 
4.5 oz Sweet potato 
3.7 oz Onion 
2.7 oz Asparagus 
1 tsp Honey 
1 tsp Sriracha 
1 tsp Ginger paste 
2 tsp Tamari 
1 oz Veggie broth 
1/2 tbsp Avocado oil

Preparation:

The small convection was preheated to 425 degrees. 

The sweet potatoes and asparagus were tossed into avocado oil and salt and pepper was at it before adding them to the oven to roast for 25 minutes.

When the potato asparagus mixed got to the 10-minute Mark I started on the beef.
In a non-stick pan (medium-high heat) The Onion was added in browned and then the beef with the added and cooked fully before adding the sriracha mix. This was mixed thoroughly with the beef, the veggie broth was added, the lid put on the pot and the heat turned to simmer. Once the veggies were done I turnef the heat back up on the pan to reduce the look with a bit before plating.

The plate!


This time I sliced the sweet potatoes a bit too thin so they ended up coming out like a Savory sweet chip which wasn't bad but not the consistency I was going for. The flavor combo did work really well with the spicy beef though.

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
