Photo: Original Philly Cheese Steak Recipe
I had this in some diner in America. Have one right after work when you're hungry and tired. It's the best.
Ingredients
- 2 onions, peeled and finely sliced
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Splash white wine vinegar
- 8 very thin sirloin steaks
- Sea salt
- 8 ounces (225 grams) provolone
- 1 French baguette
- A couple of handfuls of wild rocket, washed
- French mustard
Directions
Cook the onions in a little olive oil until golden brown, season with freshly ground black pepper and add a splash of white wine vinegar.
Drizzle olive oil over the thin slices of meat and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook the steaks on a very hot griddle pan, and after a couple of minutes turn them over and shave the cheese onto each steak. Warm the baguette in the oven.
To serve, slice the baguette in half, pile on the fried onion, then the steaks, top with rocket and finally spoon on the mustard. Place the top on the bread and slice into 4 or 2 pieces.

i love, LOVE jamie oliver's recipes. he was my inspiration to go to culinary school... but this is just a disgrace to anyone who knows a real philly cheese steak. i'm completely disheartened by this =[ and the people who gave this recipe good reviews, you're obviously not from philly or never tried one of the steaks from the area

I know that you'll probably never post this review, but I was born and raised in Philly and can tell you that this is NOT a Philly cheesesteak. No mustard, no green stuff. I love all of your shows and Oliver's included, but this was really bad!
