Buttered Sautéed Beef is a Turkish-style dish of beef cooked until tender and finished with butter. The meat is often first cooked in its own juices, then briefly sautéed with butter for a rich finish.
Cook Buttered Sautéed Beef gently until the beef is tender, rather than trying to soften it with intense heat. Keep the pot covered so the meat retains moisture, and add a little hot water if the cooking liquid disappears before the beef softens.
Chuck or another well-marbled, slow-cooking cut works well for Buttered Sautéed Beef because it becomes tender with gentle cooking. Cut the beef into evenly sized pieces so they cook at a similar rate.
Add the butter to Buttered Sautéed Beef near the end, once the meat is tender. This keeps the butter from scorching during a long cooking time and lets you coat the beef with its flavor just before serving.
Buttered Sautéed Beef is typically cooked gently in a pot and finished with butter, while saç kavurma is cooked on a hot metal griddle. Saç kavurma commonly includes vegetables such as peppers and tomatoes, which are not essential to this butter-finished version.
Yes, you can make Buttered Sautéed Beef in a pressure cooker. Pressure-cook the beef with a small amount of liquid until tender, then open the cooker and stir in the butter; adding it afterward helps preserve its flavor.
Use a leaner cut and add only enough butter to coat the cooked beef when preparing Buttered Sautéed Beef. If the meat releases a large amount of fat, spoon some off before stirring in the butter.
Rice pilaf, bulgur, or flatbread are classic partners for Buttered Sautéed Beef. A crisp salad or yogurt-based side adds freshness and balances the richness of the butter without competing with the beef.
Store Buttered Sautéed Beef in a covered container in the refrigerator and eat it within three to four days. Refrigerate it within two hours of cooking, and reheat only the portion you plan to serve.
Yes, Buttered Sautéed Beef freezes well. Let it cool, divide it into meal-sized portions, and seal them in freezer-safe containers. Thaw a portion in the refrigerator and reheat it until steaming hot throughout.

Buttered Sautéed Beef is a Turkish-style meat dish, made by cooking pieces of beef in butter until tender and richly browned. Recipes vary by household, but the meat and butter provide most of its flavour, with seasoning kept simple in many versions.
It is served hot as a main course, often with rice, bread, salad or pickles; in Turkey, it may also appear at breakfast alongside eggs. The dish is protein-rich and very low in carbohydrates, while the butter makes it relatively rich. For a lighter meal, use a leaner cut and less butter, and pair it with vegetables or a crisp salad.
