I wanted to do a cook like the Japanese Steakhouses. I prepared the raws.
The raws. I took this picture, and then took the SD card to my computer to check to see if it was OK. During that time, one of my dogs jumped on the chair and ate one of my filet mignons. When I got back, he had an unashamed look on his face, as if to say "Is there a problem here?"
The oils and sauces
Sorry, I had to go to the Weber to use the larger grill.
Plated
The filet was very tender and cooked to my preferred doneness.
Since I was the only one cooking, the meat got a little cold before the veggies were done. Next time, I'll either have two people cooking or put the meat into a 200 degree oven. But, overall, I was very pleased.

Can I come be your dog? I won't even poop in the yard. Another amazing looking oriental cook VI, very nicely done.

@Village_Idiot-your cooks are always several magnitudes of skill, presentation and talent above most of us who frequent here. That said, I always enjoy your posts and the effort you put forth to achieve the results. And ride that Vespa to Salado in style >-Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Very nice! How hard was it to make the rice on the griddle/plancha? I would likely make a real mess of that.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

I used two spatulas like they do at Benihana's and it worked well. I just didn't have enough room. I added dark soy sauce. I think I added a little too much, but it tasted good. I also forgot to bring out an egg to add to it. Next time.....__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

Looks better than the steak houses I have been to in Tokyo. Great presentation as always. Would the rice have been easier in a wok?

Cool. My favorite is "yang chow" fried rice which doesn't have any soy, but has egg, ham, peas and some other veggies in it. I can eat that stuff by the potful!Does the rice get a crispy/crunchy texture on the griddle? I might try that.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

I might try that.I find that day old rice and just a little peanut oil in a hot wok get me crispy rice if I move it around alot. Add any soy at the end to keep it dry during cooking.

I have much to learn about wokking on the eggLittle Ot, this is my favorite rice dish of all.Rice, Persian, W/Pistachios & DillTah-dig--The Crunchy Crust of rice on the bottom of the pot--is considered by many to be the prize of Persian rice.. Here it is revealed by the surprise of pistachios, whose natural sweetness is brought out by the dill.INGREDIENTS:
3 Cups Basmati Rice, (1 1/4 Lb.)
4 Qt. Water
3 Tbs Salt, for water
3/4 Stick Butter, Unsalted (6 Tbs.)
2/3 Cup Dill, Chopped, Fresh
1 Cup Pistachios, Shelled, Chopped Coarsely (5 Ozs.)Procedure:1. Rinse rice in several changes of cold water in a large bowl until the water runs clear. Drain in a sieve.2. Bring water and salt to a boil in a 6-qt. heavy pot and parboil rice., uncovered, 5 minutes. Drain in large sieve.3. Melt butter in bottom of cleaned heavy pot and spoon rice over it, enough to cover bottom about 1/2-3/4 inch thick, then alternating with sprinkles of dill and pistachios and mounding loosely, ending with rice. Usually 4-5 layers. Make 5-6 holes in rice to bottom of pot with round handle of a wooden spoon, then cover the pot with a kitchen towel and a heavy lid. Fold edges of towel up over lid (to keep towel from burning) and cook rice, undisturbed over moderately low heat until tender and a crust forms on the bottom, 30-35 minutes.4. Spoon loose rice onto a platter and dip bottom of pan in a large bowl of cold water 30 seconds to loosen tah-dig (the rice crust on the bottom). Remove tah-dig with a large spoon and serve in a seperate bowl or over loose rice.Recipe Type: Side DishSource
