This recipe has a spicy curry yogurt sauce and mango fried rice, the contrast of sweet and spicy plays well with bison’s savory notes.
Season the bison striploin generously with salt and pepper on both sides and rub it in. Slice the striploin into ¼ inch thick slices and set aside.
In a blender, combine the ingredients for the curry yogurt sauce. Blend until smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add more yogurt. Chill until ready to serve.
Add about one tablespoon of olive oil to a large skillet or wok over high heat. Sauté the onions until tender then add in the baby corn and peppers. Continue to cook 2-3 minutes then add in the garlic.
Add the cooked Basmati rice to the skillet along with tamari sauce, rice vinegar and lime juice. Stir until the rice is heated through then add the mango and cilantro. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes and then set aside and keep warm.
Clean the skillet and add in one more tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the bison striploin for 2-3 minutes, until the bison is browned and cooked medium-rare. It should still be juicy and pink in the middle.
In a large bowl, add your desired amount of spinach. Top the spinach with the fried rice and a few strips of the bison meat. Cover with the mango curry sauce, as desired, and garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro. Enjoy!
