Preparation

Step 1

Season steak with salt and pepper, and cut into 24 bite-size pieces.

In a large bowl, combine all batter ingredients and whisk to combine.

In a medium bowl, add flour and salt and mix to combine. Place the cubed steak into the flour, then batter, and then into the flour again.

Heat about an inch of oil to 350˚F/180˚C into a heavy, tall skillet or pan.

Lower the steak bites into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan, and cook each side for 4 minutes or until golden brown.

Transfer the fried bites onto a rack and season with salt.

Discard the majority of oil in the pan, leaving a tablespoon for gravy. In the same skillet, add flour, milk, and salt, and mix until thick and creamy.

Dip the steak bites into the gravy and enjoy!
