Bistek (Beef Steak Filipino style)

In the Philippines where I come from (Central Luzon) we have this version of BISTEK (Beef steak) but we call it "BISTIG"
This is my family recipe...with my revise version: Lols :-)

Ingredients
1/2 kilo of beef (round, sirloin or tenderloin), sliced

2 medium size of lemon juice

1/4 c. of dark soy sauce

1tbsp of lea n perrins sauce

freshly-ground pepper

1 tsp. of minced garlic

2 large onions, cut into rings2 tbsp.

a dash of paprika (optional)

spring onions for garnishing

Procedure:
In a glass mixing bowl, mix the lemon juice, lea and perrins and soy sauce. Add beef, garlic and ground pepper. Mix well. Let sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Heat a heavy skillet. Add oil. Lightly fry the onion rings. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Keep warm.
Reheat oil until smoking. Pan-fry the beef slices in batches, removing them as they brown. When all the beef has been cooked, pour the marinade sauce into the skillet and boil for 1 minute. (add the paprika)

Arrange beef slices on a plate. Place the onion rings on top. Pour the sauce over the onions and beef.

garnish it with spring onions if you like...(sarrappp!)
