To be honest, the original dish is made from thin pork chops, and deep fried. My version uses charcoal steaks, and the air fryer. I think that you will enjoy them. You can serve them as a snack, or place them on top of a steaming pile of rice for a meal… Up to you. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

THE DIPPING SAUCE

THE BEEF
Step 6

Cut the charcoal steak into random pieces.

Step 11

Set the temp to 375f (190c), and cook for 12 – 15 minutes.

Chef’s Note: Let the air alone for the first 5-minutes of cooking, then shake the basket about every other minute.

Increase the heat to 400f (205c), until the beef is nice and brown, about an additional 3 – 5 minutes.
Step 14

PLATE/PRESENT

Chef’s Note: These would go just as well with a more “American” dipping sauce, such as: Honey Mustard.
