These are to be 01:29 called meat alternative patties. They already come 01:32 in a package and when you get them they come 01:35 of little cellophane on them, they are frozen, 01:38 they have all different companies make them. 01:41 They are beef patties and we also in our cook 01:43 book has patties you can make from scratch, 01:45 but these have already been made up. He is 01:46 gonna go ahead on and get those going into the 01:50 skillet, no we just gonna ahead get them brown, 01:53 okay, you can actually cut them up Curtis 01:56 or we gonna, we just gonna brown like that 01:58 no we just gonna brown them right now alright 02:00 so we gonna brown them right now and as he is 02:02 getting those browned on both sides you wanna 02:08 brown them on both sides and while he is doing that 02:11 get those brown on both sides, I want to push that 02:13 little bit of little oil on the skillet there as well 02:16 okay and while he's doing that get that done. 02:18 If you look over here I've got a combination 02:21 of things that are going together. What we've got here is 02:24 we've got the beef style seasoning and I'm gonna 02:27 go ahead and pour that in because I'm gonna make 02:28 an actual sauce, this is gonna go into my pan 02:31 and we also have the cumin and we got the cumin and 02:37 we have the curry, all this is gonna make this a nice 02:41 spicy dish, okay and just leave it like that Curtis 02:46 it will get brown, it'll be fine and them I am gonna 02:48 put an onion and garlic powder all this is going 02:50 in and make for a real good, good spicy beef. 02:56 Okay, no hormones, no hormones. 03:00 Now along with this I'm gonna go ahead and 03:02 turn this stove on, if you will Curtis for me, 03:04 on his side over here. Oh! that's side okay. 03:06 Go ahead and turn now on and then turn it down 03:10 okay, like that, and I'm gonna go ahead on it 03:13 and start putting in the seasoning and it smells 03:18 wonderful. There is a lot of mock beef patties 03:21 out there in the market and of course we are using 03:24 one brand here, but it has been out there that 03:28 there are lot of amount there, you can choose. 03:29 That's right, you can make your choices depending on 03:32 you know what your preference is, okay. 03:35 Now we gonna get that boiling there, while 03:37 it's doing it's thing, I am gonna go back over here because 03:41 what's happening is we still have cayenne yet to put 03:44 in and also I want to make a paste. And this paste is 03:46 gonna be actually done with water, cold water 03:49 and of course the cornstarch wanna go ahead and put 03:52 that water in, make that up because we got to make 03:56 a kind of gravy a simulation of a gravy, a beef gravy 03:59 that you would normally have in there, okay, and 04:04 turn fire a little bit more if you want to and then, 04:06 yours or mine, we can turn them, yours, 04:08 okay, okay. And I want to go ahead and put in 04:11 the cayenne pepper as well, some of you said ohhh! 04:14 cayenne pepper. Well if you don't want the 04:17 cayenne, is optional you don't have to use it, 04:19 but I like it in this particular recipe. 04:22 And I am gonna just go ahead on 04:23 and Curtis let those sit for a few minutes, 04:27 they will turn brown on you. Okay. I'm gonna 04:29 go ahead and start stirring it in, the name of the 04:31 game is to get this into, oh! Doesn't it smell wonderful 04:33 into a nice gravy. This is the gravy you're 04:38 making now. This is the gravy. How is the gravy made 04:41 other than this way I mean. Well, lots of flavor and of 04:44 course fat and the fat from the actual grease 04:47 and notice that I'm not using any in this particular 04:48 product. Okay. So what we are gonna do 04:51 little, little fat in this recipe. Absolutely, 04:53 absolutely the same thing you can actually 04:54 buy those burgers even where they have no fat. 04:59 They are vegan, that's right vegan, regular vegan burger 05:01 and even if you buy the other one once again you 05:03 wanna read the label so let's go ahead, you 05:05 can go ahead and turn that what I'm gonna do is 05:07 I have added to this, there you go, 05:10 alright and turn those over nice and brown color 05:23 okay. You can turn your fire down and the name of game 05:25 is going to those down on the saturated fat down and 05:27 go ahead and put a lid on it and mines of course 05:30 in a mist of getting thick and what I'm gonna do 05:34 is I'm gonna add in the onions you can turn it 05:38 down low, I'm gonna add the onions in 05:41 you have that nice onion flavor and if you notice 05:45 over here, I also have the carrots and potatoes and 05:49 why did I do it that way? I did the carrot and potatoes 05:51 because most of time guys will always say 05:54 this is not our hearty meal okay. Why not. I want 05:57 beef and potatoes, they say, so okay, 06:00 beef and potatoes, so with that in mind 06:02 what we are gonna do is I'm gonna actually take 06:04 the potatoes and I have carrots also, this is gonna 06:06 be a one meal dish, okay, and I'm gonna put them in 06:09 here as... you can go ahead and start as slowly for me. 06:13 Okay. I'm gonna go ahead and put in the potatoes 06:15 and also the carrots a diced carrots and potatoes 06:18 into this mix okay. Okay, I'm gonna go ahead 06:20 and just put in there. Nice and the hearty. 06:23 Ohhhh! Ohhhh! And it also gives a nice 06:26 flavor as it is cooking there. 06:28 Alright, okay, alright now this will actually 06:34 just cook up a little bit and the water itself is 06:37 kind gonna go down and at the end of our program 06:40 you are gonna get chance, yeah go ahead 06:42 and turn it up. At the end of the program 06:44 you gonna get a chance to see what the finished 06:46 product looks like. I usually like to put that on there 06:48 and put the lid on top of it and you wanna 06:50 make sure though that you keep stirring to 06:52 make sure that because we put that cornstarch in 06:54 that it doesn't get too thick on you, and if it does 06:56 you can add little bit more water to it but 06:59 we put the cornstarch with the cold water 07:01 just so we can make sure that it won't lump 07:03 up on it. Okay, so, what we want to do is to stay by 07:07 so you could see the finished product stay by. |
