Grilled Thai Curry Beef Roll Food

SPICY THAI RED BEEF CURRY

Steps:

• For the red curry paste: In a food processor, combine the cilantro, oil, ginger, lemongrass, coriander, cumin, shrimp paste, garlic, red chiles, lime leaf, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Pulse to a consistent paste.
• For the curry: Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the curry paste and cook, stirring well, until aromatic, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the pot and increase the heat to high. Sprinkle the flank steak with a pinch of salt, then add it to the pot; cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the steak and add the onions and peppers; cook until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the coconut milk, bring to a gentle boil, then add the curry paste back to the pot; stir well. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. (If the coconut milk breaks and separates, don't worry: it will come back together to a smooth consistency.) Add the chicken broth and fish sauce, and continue simmering until the sauce has a nice, gravy-like consistency, 12 to 15 minutes. Return the beef to the pot and finish with the cilantro, basil, mint and lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

GRILLED BEEF ROLLS

Steps:

• Whisk together soy sauce, and brown sugar in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. Set aside. Cut beef crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Flatten each piece of beef, with a meat pounder, until it is 1/8-inch-thick. Don't over flatten. Transfer slices to a large plate.
• Dip a slice of beef into soy mixture and place on a clean surface. Season with pepper. Put 2 pieces of scallion green and 1 piece of each pepper across the width of beef. The vegetables should extend over both edges. Roll up lengthwise and skewer near the edges with 2 toothpicks. Set aside. Repeat with remaining beef and vegetables.
• Brush a grill pan with oil and heat until hot, or heat oven broiler. Grill or broil the rolls, brushing with the sauce and turning until the meat is medium rare, 2 to 4 minutes. Cut each roll in half. In a small saucepan bring remaining sauce to a boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Pour into a small bowl, add scallion rings, serve on the side.
