2002 GOLDEN WHISK AWARDS
(Our top 10 recipes of the year)

Every week we ask readers to take our 5:30 Challenge: Come up with a main dish that can be prepared in 30 minutes or less with no more than five ingredients. Susanne Torres of Atlanta met that challenge with this tasty beef entree of Korean origin (pronounced buhl [rhymes with "dull"] GO - ghee) and it's a keeper. She wrote that even her "picky-eater son loves it, as does everyone I have ever served it to." The soy sauce mixture can be boiled and used as gravy on the rice.

Hands on time: 5 minutes  Total time: 25 minutes  Serves: 4

Ingredients:

    3 tablespoons sesame seeds
    2/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
    2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    2 tablespoons sherry
    1 pound top sirloin or top round, sliced into 2-inch-long strips

Instructions:

In a nonstick saute pan, toast sesame seeds until golden brown, swirling them occasionally to prevent burning and toast evenly. Pulverize sesame seeds with a rolling pin, mortar and pestle or knife. In a large bowl, mix sesame seeds, soy sauce, sugar, sherry and 1/4 cup water. Add beef and stir to combine.
Marinate for 10 to 15 minutes. In a nonstick pan or a lightly oiled skillet, place beef strips in a single layer. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side.
