Minute Steak Medley is a fun, easy, quick and cheap weeknight meal. The idea occurred to me after eating a so-called "beef fondue." If you don't know beef fondue, you fry small cubes or strips of beef in hot oil and then dip them in various sauces. In this case I buy a couple of minute steaks (aka cube steaks), quickly pan fry them, and then sit down with an array of sauces. You cut off a bite of steak, apply a bit of sauce and eat it. Then another bite and another sauce. The more sauces you have the better. (Larger image.) Serves 2.
