Family version of "boiled beef": spicy and fragrant, with an endless aftertaste
In the busy life, a dish with good taste and flavor always brings us great satisfaction. Today, what I want to share with you is the family version of "boiled beef" that my mother taught me, this dish is spicy and fragrant, the beef is tender and creamy, and the soup is rich and addictive.
Boiled beef, as the name suggests, is the way beef is cooked in water. But this "water" is not ordinary clear water, but a spicy soup base that blends a variety of spices.
Mom told me that the choice and handling of beef is key to this dish. Fresh beef is sliced and marinated in cooking wine, ginger and a little salt, resulting in a tender, smooth and delicious beef.
During the cooking process, my mother would first boil a pot of spicy soup base, then add side dishes such as bean sprouts and bean skin, and then put the marinated beef slices into the pot one by one after the side dishes were boiled until they were broken. The beef slices are quickly cooked in the spicy soup base, maintaining its tender texture while also absorbing the spicy flavor of the soup base.
At last
Mom would sprinkle some chopped green onions, minced garlic and peppercorns on top of the beef and drizzle with a spoonful of hot oil. With the pouring of hot oil, the aroma of the whole dish is instantly stimulated, and the fragrance fills the house.
This family-friendly "boiled beef" dish is not only spicy and fragrant, but also nutritious, making it perfect for sharing with the family. Every time I make this dish, I hear the praise of my family, and even three bowls of rice are not enough! If you also like spicy food, try this family version of "boiled beef", I believe you will love it too.
