Three points to keep in mind!

Let’s see how to do it in detail!

Ingredients for beef stew with radish: 500 grams of beef ribs, 1 white radish, 50 grams of fried tofu, 3 star anise, 15 peppercorns, two bay leaves, a small piece of cinnamon, half a green onion, half a piece of ginger, 2 tablespoons of light soy sauce

, 2 spoons of dark soy sauce, 1 spoon of cooking wine, a small piece of rock sugar, and 1 garlic sprout.

The first step is to soak the purchased beef ribs in water for more than 2 hours to remove as much blood as possible to reduce the fishy smell.

Prepare the fried tofu and white radish, and add some fried tofu when stewing. The fried tofu will absorb the soup and is very delicious.

In the second step, cut the white radish into cubes and prepare green onions, ginger, peppercorns, star anise, bay leaves and cinnamon.

The third step is to pour water into the pot, cut the beef ribs into pieces, and continue to cook for a few minutes until the beef no longer foams, and the blood is fully cooked out.

Rinse the cooked beef with hot water.

Step 4: Pour oil into the pot, heat the oil, add onions, ginger, and aniseed and stir-fry until fragrant. Add beef and continue stir-frying until the beef is firm.

Step 5: Add two spoons of light soy sauce, two spoons of dark soy sauce, one spoon of cooking wine, and a small piece of rock sugar and stir-fry evenly.

Step 6: Add hot water that has not covered the beef, bring to a boil over high heat, and continue to cook for 10 minutes until the aroma of the beef is completely released.

I stewed it in a casserole, so the amount of water was just enough to cover the beef. If I stew it in an ordinary wok, the water level should at least cover the beef by 1 cm.

Step 7: Add fried tofu and radish cubes. Add radish to stew the beef. The beef will rot faster.

Step 8: After boiling over high heat, continue to simmer over low heat for 30 minutes.

Step 9: Stew until the beef is tender and add appropriate amount of salt to taste.

Sprinkle a handful of garlic sprouts before serving to enhance the flavor.

The hot and fragrant radish beef stew is ready. It is delicious and delicious when mixed with rice!

Tips for stewed beef: 1. When cutting beef, cut it against the grain. Never cut it along. The stewed beef will have a chewy texture that will clog your teeth.

2. When blanching beef, cold water is put into the pot, but the beef after blanching must be washed with hot water, and the water for stewing beef must also be hot water.

If you use cold water, the protein of the beef will solidify quickly, which will affect the taste and prevent it from becoming rotten after being stewed for a long time.

3. When stewing beef, add radish and hawthorn, or add a few drops of rice vinegar to make the beef rotten faster.
