Open Steak Sandwich & Rice Spring Rolls - Home Economics

Open Steak Sandwich 

Ingredients: 

• Flat Steak 
• Lettuce 
• Tomatoes
• Cheddar Cheese
• Buns

How is it made? 

1. Season the steak with minced garlic, oil, salt and pepper and marinate it.

2. Heat the pan, after the pan is heated, put in the marinated flat steak. Cook it for 2 minutes, make sure to not overcook it or it will be rubbery. 

3. Cut the tomatoes into circles. Cut the lettuce into strips. 

4. Prepare your buns, add the lettuce, tomatoes and cheddar cheese, you can put any sauce you'd like.

Appearance

The steak was juicy and the texture was right. 

The bun was soft and fluffy. 

The lettuce gave the sandwich a crunch and it made it healthier. 

The tomatoes made the sandwich juicier and gave it a sweet and sour taste to it. 

Flavour

• Sweet
• Sour
• Cheesy

Rating: I would give this dish a 9 out of 10, not a 10 because there could be more ingredients added to it like spinach and capsicum. 

Rice Paper Spring Rolls

• Thin Rice Noodles
• Cucumber
• Lettuce
• Rice Paper
• Carrot
• Bean sprouts

How is it made? 

1. Cut the cucumber, carrot into julienne. Cut the lettuce into thin strips. Cut the bean sprout into small pieces (the bean sprout we used were big and were not enough to distribute it to everyone in the group. 

2. Soak the rice paper in warm water, take the rice paper when it has become soft and is able to shape it. 

3. Place the rice paper on a plate or a workspace, put the vegetables you like on top of the rice paper, fold one of the two equivalent sides of the rice paper (the rice paper shape was circle). Then start rolling it on the end of the sides of the rice paper that is not folded.

Appearance 

It looks nice and presentable on the outside. 

It doesn't have any meat or any other seasoning to make it flavourful, just looking at the rice paper spring rolls, it looked bland. 

It looks wet. 

Flavour

• Bland
• Juicy (because of the cucumber's water

Rating: I would rate it a 1 out of 10 because I just didn't like it, the texture and flavour.
