Ingredients

Finished quantity

  • 10,0 kg Climate-smart pan-fried beef

Ingredients

  • 1,5 kg Dry Simsubas
  • 21 grams Allspice
  • 35 grams Garlic powder
  • 21 grams Smoked paprika powder
  • 21 grams Ginger
  • 28 grams Black pepper finely ground
  • 120 gram Salt
  • 2,6 kg water
  • 140 gram Tomato paste
  • 1,0 kg Rapeseed oil
  • 1,3 kg Yellow onion chopped or diced
  • 1,3 kg Potatoes boiled and grated
  • 3,3 kg Minced beef

Instructions

Mixing:

  • Mixing can be done in a Varimixer/Björn, in a cooking pot or by hand. When mixing in a cooking pot, do not forget to remove the side wing. We recommend a maximum of 20 kg of dry Simsubas per batch when mixing in a cooking pot.
    NOTE! When mixing with inferior stirring (saucepan or pre-mixing) make sure that the water, oil and all "wet ingredients" are mixed together a little before starting the stirring for best results.

Instruction:

  • Mix the dry ingredients
  • Then mix in all the other ingredients
  • Start mixing at low speed and when all the liquid has entered the powder increase the speed.
  • Ready after about 20 seconds in the Varmixer/Björn (when the dough has come together into a homogeneous mass) and about 1 minute in the cooking pot. Do not run for too long as the texture can become too tough.
  • Shaping steaks by hand or in a mincing machine
  • Fry quickly on a griddle or ipinium tray with rapeseed oil and then cook at 200 degrees without moisture to an internal temperature of 86 degrees.

Tips:

  • Want more umami flavor? Fry the onion in the rapeseed oil, then add the tomato paste at the last minute.

Climate impact:

  • Grazing by cows promotes biodiversity for both insects and birds and creates open landscapes, but beef is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. Try this recipe with chicken or hen mince to further reduce the climate impact.

    Very good. Became a little loose, but probably because I had mixed minced meat as I did not have any minced beef at home. We make them more times 👍

      Thanks!!! Can be made with any mince, but as you say, you may need to compensate for the fat content. Higher fat content in the minced meat will be slightly looser.
