Sunnys Bloody Beef Fingers Recipes

Steps:

• Add the honey, orange juice, olive oil, salt, red curry seasoning and black pepper to a medium bowl. Whisk until the honey and oil are dispersed. Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade, then divide the remaining marinade in half between two resealable plastic bags. Add the beef chunks to one bag and the pineapple to the other bag. Seal both bags and let rest at room temperature for 2 hours. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water while the beef and pineapple are marinating.
• Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
• Remove or strain the beef and pineapple chunks from the bags and discard the marinade. Pat everything dry. Build the skewers by alternating between the beef and pineapple, placing 3 to 4 pieces of each on each skewer. Place them over the direct heat of the grill and cook on each side for 1 to 2 minutes. Brush the skewers with the reserved marinade. Remove from the grill and serve with yellow rice, if using.

Steps:

• Season the beef cubes on all sides with salt and pepper. In a large, ovensafe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add the butter. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper and cook until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to a plate. Working in batches, sear the beef cubes and jalapeno halves on all sides, about 10 minutes. Remove to a bowl, leaving the fat in the pot. Toss the seared beef cubes and jalapeno with the flour.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Add the onions, paprika and sage to the pot and cook, stirring, until the onions are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, ground and cubed beef and jalapenos to the pot. Add the beef stock and 1 cup of the coffee. Season with a pinch of salt. Cover and cook in the oven until the beef is tender, about 4 hours.
• At the 4-hour mark, add the potatoes, carrots and remaining 1/2 cup coffee. Cover and continue to cook until the potatoes and carrots are tender, about 1 hour. Skim off any fat from the top, then spoon the stew over the rice. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Season beef with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Unfold puff pastry and evenly brush 1 sheet with mustard, covering entire surface. Fold over and cut into 4 equal pieces. Press the pastry edges with tines of a fork to seal and cut 3 small slits halfway deep in the center of each pastry rectangle to allow steam to escape when it cooks. Set pastry rectangles on a baking sheet lined with parchment. In a small bowl whisk egg with 1 teaspoon water. Brush pastry rectangle with egg wash and bake 25 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
• Brush beef with oil. Season with salt and pepper and grill until it's nicely caramelized, turning only once, approximately 3 minutes each side. Transfer beef to a sheet pan and place in the preheated oven. Roast until medium-rare, another 10 to 12 minutes. Remove beef from the oven and place on a cutting board. Let meat rest 10 minutes before slicing. To serve, place a puff pastry rectangle on each serving plate. Drizzle with Sauteed Wild Mushroom Sauce and top with beef slices.
• Heat a saute pan to medium heat. Add butter and olive oil. Add garlic and thyme leaves and saute for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, salt and pepper, saute until golden and tender, about 10 minutes. Cook in batches, if necessary, so that the mushrooms don't steam. Return all mushrooms to pan, if working in batches. Add heavy cream and mustard and simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. When warm, add the potatoes and some salt and pepper. When golden on one side, toss in the onion, salt and pepper, and some oil if the pan is dry. Saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the garlic and cook until fragrant, just 1 minute more. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a plate or bowl.
• Cook the beef: In that pan, add some olive oil, if needed, and the cumin, curry, chili powder, allspice, thyme, cinnamon, salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Allow the spices to bloom in the pan, about 1 minutes. Once fragrant, add the beef, combine it with the spices and cook on medium-high heat, stirring often to break up the beef, until it browns, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the corn and reserved potato-onion mixture. Let cool.
• Assemble the patties. When the beef filling is cool to the touch, work with 1 wrapper at a time and scoop 2 heaping tablespoons of filling into the center, then fold the dough over to form a half circle. Press out the air with your fingertips, from the filled sides to the edges. Press the tines of a fork along the edges to seal, creating a border about 1/2-inch wide.
• Repeat with more filling and wrappers.
• Fry the patties: In a large pot or deep fryer, heat 4 inches of oil to 365 degrees F, so the oil rests at 350 degrees F when the patties are added. In batches of 2 or 3, fry until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes for each batch. Allow the oil to rise to 360 degrees F before beginning a new batch. Transfer the patties to a plate with paper towels scrunched up so one side of the patties don't get soggy. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Mix peanut butter, powdered milk, and honey together in a bowl until mixture resembles a soft dough. This will be the 'flesh' of the fingers.
• Mold enough dough around each pretzel rod, making sure to cover the ends. The pretzels will be the 'bones' of the fingers.
• Use the tip of a teaspoon the make marks on the 'flesh' similar to knuckles.
• Push 1 sliced almond onto 1 end of each 'finger' to resemble a finger nail.
• Place jam in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in microwave until softened, 20 to 30 seconds. Dip the end opposite the 'finger nail' into the jam for the 'blood'.
