What is Beef sauté?
Beef sauté is a Turkish home-style dish made by cooking bite-sized pieces of beef in a hot pan, often with peppers and tomatoes. The beef browns while the vegetables soften, creating a glossy, savoury sauce that clings to each piece.
It is usually served hot as a main course, with rice, bulgur or bread to soak up the juices; a fresh salad makes a good contrast. This is a protein-rich choice, with 26.5 grams of protein per 100 grams. For a lighter meal, pair it with plenty of vegetables and keep the added cooking oil modest.
