MR. HARD’S ROCKS – Steaks in RIS

Last night he had to run quietly, with (horror of horrors!) wine and gossips but... my friend came to me with a bag full of domestic beers. At that moment, I knew that the night would not be quiet - we had to eat something nutritious, as it promised to be a long night.
As the contents of the fridge presented quite nobly we bet on steaks. But how to cook without beer? That can not be! Ultimately, the meat was flooded RIS from Pracownia Piwa brewery, garnished with lime juice and jalapeno. It was good! :)



Beer - Mr. Hard's Rock from Pracownia Piwa:

Deep black, opaque with beige foam. Full of roasted malt aromas, dark chocolate and freshly roasted coffee. The beer is creamy, medium saturated. The taste feel maltiness, chocolate combined with coffee. There is also a delicate acidity derived from roasted barley. Mouthfeel is smooth and full-bodied, slightly wylepiające. The taste is complemented by hop bitterness that balances the malt. Well placed, balanced stout ideal for slow tasting.

Preparation:

Wash meat, throw in a bowl, pour beer, add lime juice 1.5, some jalapeno peppers, put off everything for approx. One hour (can be longer, but we were terribly hungry and did not want to wait;)).

Fry the meat to dry, tight hot pan after one minute on each side.

Serve along with a salad of arugula, leek and limes, and caramelized red onions.

May the Force be with You!

RAUCHMARZEN - Home made burgers

Homemade burgers, are very easy dish to make but also very effective. I have to admit that it takes more time to prepare the sauce and jam than burgers themselves. Anyway,  if you add suitable additives - the effect will be to die for. Try it, and You'll find out that no food tracks or other fast food restaurants match with the personally prepared burgers!
And that's it!

Beer: Rauchmarzen from Widawa Brewery
Brown color with lush, small and beige foam. Intense aroma of smoky, focal, dark malts. The taste is smoked, roasted and chocolate. Gentian rather small. In general it's very refreshing.

thyme
oregano
1 red onion

teaspoon of honey

preparation:

Burgers:
Add one eggv and finely chopped onion to the minced meat, season with salt, pepper, basil, oregano and thyme, mix everything.
Unfortunately, I do not have a pro-tip'a the formation of the perfect meat shape, so you have to train it yourself by trial and error.
Throw meat on a dry, tight hot pan and fry for about 2 minutes on each side. After the roll to the other side to the top throw slice of cheese.
Blanching zucchini:
Cut the zucchini into thin slices. Boil salted water in a pot. When it starts to boil add the courgette slices for 15-20 seconds, and then thrown them into the previously prepared bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process.

Barbecue sauce:
Fry the finely chopped garlic in a little bit of olive oil. Add the ketchup, 200 ml of beer, seasoned with sweet and hot peppers, add a little curry powder and salt. Cook for about 5 minutes on low heat until it takes the right consistency.

Red onion jam:
Chop the onion in the thin slices, glaze it on a low heat. Add 2 tablespoons of mustard, 1/2 teaspoon of honey and 100ml of beer. Reduce to the consistency of jam and season.

Cut bread in half, then broil on a dry, very hot pan.
Butter a bottom of rolls with red onion jam, then put a burger, lettuce, zucchini, tomato, pour barbecue sauce, apply a roll and go! :)
