Pepper Corn and Beef

This is probably one of the quickest and easiest dish you can prepare. The combination of beef and corn is simply scrumptious. You might need more rice. 

I have the tendency to dislike food and not to try them at all when somebody tells me the taste is not that “wow” or if I have tasted something close previously and did not like how it tasted.

I have tried pepper corn & beef before when at the airport and starving to death. That was the only dish looked appealing to me. When I tasted it, it was too pepper-y – more like it was called pepper-y pepper & pepper than pepper corn & beef. From that moment, no matter how pepper corn & beef looked mouth-watering to me, the eye contact between me and the photo never lasted that long. I always run away.

Not until a few days ago when I saw this recipe. For how many years of running away from anything pepper corn & beef, I finally met the one made my eyes sparkle and my tummy rumbling.

Ahh, the taste was amazing – a balance between salty, sweet & pepper-y. I apologize to all the pepper corn & beef I’ve met before, but I’ve met my soulmate… and we’re engaged! 😀

But for now, I am sharing this with all my friends and bringing this dish at Fiesta Friday #151. Thanks for keeping this party going, Angie!

I got more rice for you, so help yourself. 😉
