Chinese Beef Stew By Neko No Hime

-

More of the homecooked meals series coming up. Today's dish of the day, Chinese Beef Stew. I love beef. My family cannot say no to beef. We like in any form, balls, rendang, curry, stew, pies and etc. In fact my parents have taken their beef love to a new level which is like stomach, the tendons etc etc. My brother and i keep it to just the meat bits :). But we do love sup ekor :) Especially the ones in Bandung.

I find it odd that people in Hong Kong which is a predominantly Buddhist country eats beef wherelse people in malaysia don't! I have not figured out why yet but one day must go and ask my Aunty who is more knowledgeable in such matters.

Normally we fry the beef with veggies or sometimes make rendang ( which is rare now - due to cholestrol reasons ) but mom makes up for it by making Chinese Beef Stew. It reminds me of the one that Nam Heong Chicken rice used to serve up in the old Damansara Utama branch.

This recipe by the way, tastes good only with beef. I don't think the pork and chicken versions work well.

 Ingredients:
* 12 tahils of beef
* 1 tbl spoon of soya sauce
* 1/2 tsp ng heong fun, salt and pepper
* 1/4 cup cooking oil
* 2 cloves
* 2 petals of bunga lawang
* 1 inch cinnamon stick
* 2 cups hot water
* 1 carrot
* 1 potato ( preference to omit )
* A dash of chinese wine
* 1 daikon
* 1 celery - this adds to the distinctive smell the dish gets.

Cut the beef and season with the soya sauce, ng heong fun, salt and pepper. Heat the oil and lightly brown the meat, don't over cook it too much! At the remaining ingredients and bring it to a boil . Reduce the heat and then simmer till both meat and veggies are cook! This roughly takes about 1 1/2 hours. The smell is amazing. If there is "scratch a blog" for smell, it would definitely be beneficial.

Makes good pot luck dish and can be put in the freezer for future use! It's also a good one pot dish if you are not into cooking other things. Has meat and veggies. Ok. I am hungry now. Toodles.

You're in the supermarket after the long tiring work. Your boss scolded you for a mistake that you made in your work and you feel so bad about it. You didn't notice that you are already in the meat section and you have no idea how you get there. And then the first thing that you saw is the packed tocino. You then feel a little relieved because Tocino is one of your favorite breakfast back when you're still in college. How about cook your own Tocino? You remembered back then when you're in the HRM class cooking that you cooked a recipe Hamonado and start to realize that the taste of Hamonado and Tocino is a little bit similar. They're both a bit sweet and tender. You then realized that you are going to cook your own Tocino but not now. You need to have the recipe for it before buying the ingredients for the food. You then just grab a pack of processed Tocino and then went home. You start to ask yourself if you can cook your own Tocino and then your start to think
