Braised beef can be said to be the "ultimate home-cooked delicious form" of beef. Almost everywhere in the world has its own methods. Let me share my method of cooking braised beef, the "rice butcher" with a strong aroma!

braised beef

main ingredient: beef (brisket is fine, but I recommend beef rib, which has less fat and oil, and the soft waxy taste after stewing with ribs. ), radish (almost the proportion of 2 Jin of beef and half a Jin of radish)

Ingredients: half a green onion, 3 cloves of garlic, a small piece of ginger, 2 star anise, 1 piece of fragrant leaves, 1 small piece of cinnamon, appropriate amount of dried pepper and pepper, 1 ml of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of Pixian bean paste, soy sauce, salt and sugar.

Production process:

First, rinse the beef, then cut it into pieces. If there is enough time, it will be more thorough to soak it in advance to remove blood and fishy smell. Add cooking wine and ginger slices to the pot in cold water and blanch it. After blanching, take it out and rinse it with hot water and drain it for later use.

Heat the oil in a pan, stir-fry shallots, ginger slices, garlic slices, dried peppers and prickly ash, then turn down the heat, add Pixian bean paste and stir-fry red oil, add beef and stir-fry evenly, stir-fry some of the moisture on the beef surface, pour it into soy sauce and soy sauce and stir-fry evenly, and add boiling water until all the ingredients are mixed;

Then add spices such as anise cinnamon. Next, you can choose: after the fire boils, turn to low heat and simmer for more than one and a half hours, then add radish pieces and stew for more than 2 minutes; Or directly move it into a pressure cooker and steam it for 2 minutes, then turn off the fire (the specific time depends on the situation of the pot). After pressure relief, put it into a stew pot and add radish pieces to stew for 2 minutes. Finally, taste the taste for the final seasoning. After the fire, the juice can be served.

Braised beef, like braised pork, is a very popular home-cooked dish, so many places have their own unique practices. As long as they are delicious to themselves and their families, they are "the most authentic". The common side dishes of braised beef are radish and potato. Radish is more refreshing, and potato is more delicious and mellow. It depends on your taste.
