This got me into survival mode and I immediately got cooking and baking like there was no tomorrow. I quickly opened my refrigerator to see what ingredients I had. Immediately a big bag of lemons caught my eye. I had an “ Aha “ moment and knew I just had to make BISTIK.
Bistek Tagalog is the Filipino version of the Beefsteak. It is comprised of thinly sliced beef cooked in soy sauce and lemon juice and garnished with caramelized onion rings.
This simple yet great tasting recipe does not require much ingredients and the procedure is not complicated at all. Just have all the ingredients present, add a little love to it and Voila! You have your deliciously cooked beef steak.
Cooking Bistek Tagalog is easier than you think. As long as you follow the steps indicated in this bistek tagalog recipe, you should be alright. It is important to marinate the beef in soy sauce and lemon juice for at least an hour so that the meat absorbs the flavor prior to cooking. The cut of the beef also matters a lot because this will affect the texture of the dish. Tender cuts are recommended for shorter cooking time. If the cut of beef that you have is tough, try cooking it in a pressure cooker for 30 minutes.
1 kilo round or sirloin tip steak
2 tbsps calamansi juice ( Or Lemon Juice )
1/8 cup soy sauce
3 tbsp. cooking oil
1/4 cup water
2 onions, sliced
1 pc. garlic, minced finely

Cover and let it simmer, cook until beef is tender (10 to 15 minutes)
Drain, setting aside meat and saving the left-over broth or liquid in another bowl.
Then heat cooking oil in wok and saute garlic and 1 sliced onion.
Add meat and stir-fry for one minute.
Add left over liquid and simmer for 5 minutes then add cornstarch mixed with 1 tspn water. Simmer for a couple of minutes.
Adjust seasonings and add salt to taste as necessary.
