14th May – Beef braised in soy sauce

Ingredients (serves 3-4):

  • 1 pack of braising beef – sliced into strips
  • 2 turnips – sliced
  • 3 carrots – sliced
  • 1 onion – chopped
  • 1 piece of ginger – finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons of light soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of dark soy sauce
  • 1 beef stock cube
  • 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Pepper to taste

Heat a large pan or wok up and add the oil and the ginger and onion.  Stir for a minute or so before adding the meat and cooking until browned off.  Add the beef stock with a small glass of water and also the dark soy sauce.  Bring to the boil and then reduce to a gentle simmer and leave for around 40 minutes, topping up with water if necessary.

Add the carrots, turnips, ginger, light soy sauce and sugar and leave to simmer for a further 30 minutes, again adding water if necessary so the mixture doesn’t dry out.  Serve with rice or noodles.  Enjoy!
