How do you properly cook a steak or meat in a grill?
See title.
ALSO, MUCH APPRECIATED IF SOMEONE COULD TELL ME HOW TO MAKE HOT PORRIDGE PROPERLY, LOL
THANKS :D
Answers: Only turn the steak once during cooking. Constant flipping prevents the outside from being seared.Use the right temperature, cooking it at a too high temp. can cause the outside to char b4 the inside reaches the proper doneness. Salt ur steak after grilling as salt draws out and will prevent steak from browning. Dont use a fork peircing the meat will release the delicious juices. Use long handled tongs or spatulas to move food around the grill. Leave a thin layer pf fat on your steak while grilling to lock in flavorful juices, Trim away fat b4 serving. And as far as porridge, no idea. Make sure any meat you cook is completely defrosted before cooking, otherwise you'll kill the finishing on your grill. How long to cook meat mainly depends on the thickness and its fat content. Be careful not to overcook meat, the grill cooks so fast that meat(especially low fat) can go from undercooked to overcooked in less than 30 seconds. The hamburgers and other burgers come out so moist that you can just salt them up and eat them like you would a steak, no ketchup or bun necessary. If you're cooking other veggies you can cook them right after cooking the burgers without washing the grill. Hamburgers and lamb burgers leave a greasy film that works as a great seasoning for other veggies. You can also add some Extra Virgin Olive Oil to some of the meats like chicken, pork chops etc. If you cook something like pork chops that has a bone, trim the meat off the bone before cooking. You'll want the top of the grill to press against meat while cooking, not bone.
Hamburgers - Hamburgers will take around 4-6 minutes, depending on their thickness.
Chicken - Thick breasts will take around 5-8 minutes. Small "stirfry" pieces will only take about 2 minutes.
Buffalo Burgers - Chances are you've never had em, but they are really delicious, very similar to hamburgers although lower in fat and arguably a little better tasting. Hamburgers, even lowfat ones, are a bit greasy but buffalo burgers have a great taste without the greasiness. Be careful not to over cook them, due to the lower fat content they are not as good well done. I usually cook relatively thin burgers for about 3 1/2 minutes. You can find them at some health food stores or order them online.
Venison - A venison burger will only take about 2 1/2 minutes to cook.
Lamb burgers - Lamb burgers are really good too. They take about the same amount of time to cook as regular hamburgers and are pretty oily. While buffalo burgers taste similar to beef, lamb burgers have a bit more of a unique taste. If you eat em expecting them to taste like beef you might not like them. Eat them a few times with an open mind and you should grow to really enjoy them.
For Porridge:
1/2 cup long-grain white rice (or equal amounts of long-grain and glutinous rice)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon peanut oil
4 cups water
4 cups chicken stock
FOR PORRIDGE: Rinse the rice with cold water until the rinse water runs clear. Drain. Put the rice in a large saucepan and stir in the salt and oil. Add the water and chicken stock. Bring to a boil over high heat and stir the rice to loosen the grains from the bottom of the pan. Set the cover ajar and boil gently for 5 minutes. Cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is soft and is the consistency of porridge, about 1 1/2 hours. Keep warm.
TO SERVE: Ladle the hot porridge into warmed soup bowls.
