Specially developed by Chef Pung Lu Tin (of Tasty Court), this dish is a brand new take on ribeye cuts in general. It combines mouth-watering USDA ribeye cubes drizzled with a robust flavoured sauce.

We've tried this dish and it is amaaaazing! We can't shout better praises. There was a reason our host Irene Ang literally stopped talking during our Facebook Live. The fragrant nonya sauce tinged with the exotic torch ginger flower pairs extremely well with the full-flavoured ribeye cut – it is beyond heavenly. Despite being restaurant worthy, it actually isn't that difficult to make. We recommend making a larger batch of that nonya sauce and buying more USDA Ribeye than you think you need. Believe us when we say: Once you start, you can't stop.

In celebration of Singapore's 55th Birthday, Chef Pung developed this locally inspired dish with Aw's Market USDA Ribeye flown in from the United States of America. This recipe was shared on our Facebook Live streamed on 29th July 2020.
