Braised Beef

This is the 1st time i tried braising beef. Remembered Bro sent me a recipe on this beef dish. But it had been kept in my mailbox for months... till i realised it been a long time, since MAY.. i lasted did stew beef.

Was thinking MAYBE I SHOULD....

try out the recipe he shared with me... since i had some braised meat sauce in the freezer...

1 stone hit 2 birds... can try out this new recipe at the same time...

Bought fresh beef instead of using the frozen ones..

It was so so so... NICE! haha *thick skin*

But instead there is a differ when spices are added in....

Even Our 老爷said he perfer this version now....

Our bunch ... lazy to go out with breakfast and since there are still stew beef leave... cooked it with maggi mee.

Day2: Beef Stew

After 3.5hrs... its all worth it...

Simple love the gravy which had been absorbed into the raddish, carrot ( look like sweet potato, isn't it?) and the meat...

Please gimme a bowl of rice...

Day 1: Stew beef

1st dish of the year... BEEF STEW

We heart stew and this isn't the 1st time i am doing this dish. Will be bringing this dish over to granny place tml. And of course, to me.. stew tasted better on the next day so i pre-prepared this 1 day in advance so that we can have a nice stew for dinner.


I have to confess, i HATE onions... its not something that i will opt for if i am cooking for myself.. but amazingly, the flavour was wonderful, natural sweetness from it.
Haha you must be thinking, YOU burnt your onions!!!!
Mmm i learnt this from a tv food show that by doing this, it will give the soup based a very natural golden colour to replace using dark soya sauce. And i decided to give it a try, AND YES!!!! i fell in love with the method ever since i tried it.

The Main ingredients: listed above... i pre-marinated my beefs 1 day inadvance in the fridge. And add in the ingrdients almost every 30min to stew it. After 90min of stewing, its not ready to be eaten cause it will take about 4hrs to get a melt in your mouth stew.
As i mentioned earlier, i prefered a day 2 stew so i am living my stew aways and continue to simmer it the next day for better taste.
