STORY BEHIND THE DISH

Years ago my sister & I used to buy prepared dinners from a placed called Super Suppers in Fountain Valley. Since the location in our city closed, I have been trying to recreate one of our favorite meals, Asian Flake Steak. This recipe turned out very close to the original & is one of my favorites!
