I've been in here waiting,
0:04
in fact I was fixing to do a job
0:06
that I was gonna give to you.
0:08
- My ears were burning
0:09
and I've got a little farm - How are you?
0:11
- for your table hun.
0:11
- Y'all this is James Farmer.
0:14
- So good to see you. - Good to see you.
0:16
Am only glad to be here.
0:17
- You still look great.
0:19
- Well I brought a little bit
0:19
of things from the garden - Rosemary tree
0:21
- My favorite, my favorite.
0:22
- And you brought more books?
0:23
- I brought some more books.
0:25
Well, the first thing I was gonna get started on was
0:28
a Sesame onion marinated flank steak.
0:34
we could slice it up and make lettuce wraps.
0:37
All right, so let's come on down here.
0:39
And what I'd like you to do
0:41
is zest one lime for me, - All right.
0:43
and I need the juice of one lime.
0:47
- And while you're doing that,
0:49
I'm gonna chop these onions
0:53
you know, in a marinade there's no.
0:55
- There's no real measurements.
0:58
- You know you just throw it in there
0:59
and see how it comes together.
1:01
- So tell me what you've been up to since I saw you last?
1:03
- Well you know, these wild book tours that I've been on,
1:06
they've taken me - Oh my gosh.
1:07
but you know what I love?
1:09
people wanna know about food and they wanna know
1:11
about Mimi, my grandmother,
1:12
they wanna know about the family
1:14
and what I've got growing in my garden.
1:16
So, honey, I just tell 'em.
1:17
- All right, tell me about your Mimi.
1:20
- My Mimi is just one of my favorite people
1:23
- As a Mimi is supposed to be.
1:25
Well, Mimi told me that we eat with our eyes first.
1:28
And so no matter what we do, - Absolutely.
1:30
- we've got to make it pretty.
1:32
- Now, I'm gonna just put my onion over in here.
1:36
- Then I'm gonna measure out five tablespoons of soy sauce,
1:41
(upbeat country music)
1:46
- of the rice vinegar.
1:47
Three tablespoons of brown sugar.
1:50
About a half a teaspoon - Got it.
1:52
- of red pepper flakes.
1:54
Two teaspoons of the sesame oil.
1:57
And a tablespoon of garlic.
1:59
- All right, we're set up for you.
2:00
- Would you please, please.
2:03
- And we're gonna take our steak
2:05
and we're gonna put it in a little baggy.
2:08
And this is just a little flank steak.
2:11
- Oh, you know, I grew up on a cattle farm,
2:12
so steak is close to home.
2:14
- I did. In Hawkinsville.
2:15
We even had a Buffalo.
2:18
- His name was Marvin.
2:19
He would get out and he'd walk into our swimming pool.
2:22
All right, so we'll have a half of this?
2:24
- All right, is that good?
2:26
- All right, perfect.
2:27
- Cause we gon' save the rest of that for dipping sauce.
2:31
and I like to kinda turn mine James.
2:37
- All right. It's time for our flake steak.
2:40
- All right, I think that it's time to get this...
2:44
in the sink? - In the sink.
2:47
- Now we're probably gonna have a lot of smoke here Y'all
2:49
because remember we marinated this in Brown sugar.
2:53
- In brown sugar there's some there so
3:00
- There's the smoke I promised you.
3:04
Now remember, we're gonna slice this on the bias
3:07
and we're going to make wonderful lettuce wraps
3:10
So this is our flank steak.
3:13
- I will start putting together
3:14
some of our lettuce wraps ya'all.
3:22
I've got some beans sprouts.
3:25
I've got some water chestnuts per crunch.
3:28
I've got some green onion.
3:31
All right, now, remember that marinade
3:33
that we had for our flank steak?
3:39
- So, I use that to just drizzle over our lettuce wrap.
3:48
- This is garden the table, right here.
3:59
- This one is so fresh.
4:00
- I love the soy sauce.
4:02
- And you know, I think if you'd put it on bread,
4:03
you'd have lost some of that essence.
4:06
That lettuce wrap is so fresh and delicious.
