for today we’reactually going to help out with rice andsome vegetables so I wanted to showcaseof what ingredients we’re going to beusing today for the crank Tiger which isalso known as so oblong high we’re goingto use this fabulous cut of meat whichis beef ribeye so I got this at thelocal supermarket as you can see herethey’re roughly about half a pound eachpiece of meat and we’re going to bemaking a dipping sauce for crying tigeras welland bring that sauce we are going to beusing waster sauce fish sauce can Itaste you can also use tamarindconcentrate which is the same thing youcan use tamper and pull but thatactually comes within the actualtamarind fruit itself so for the saucetypically don’t want to use tamarindconcentrate or tamarind paste which isalready white sugar I’m going to roastsome rice so typically for the dippingsauce for crank Tiger you can useglutinous rice I didn’t have any on handso I made some rice and I’m just goingto use some white jasmine rice whichshould be the same thing and here forthe dry spices and we have red chilipepper flakes and ground black pepperand I mentioned some vegetables so wehave here cilantro which that’s going togo into the dipping
