Sayur Sop Daging Sapi Without MSG and Sugar

Sayur Sop Daging Sapi is a delightful Indonesian beef soup that’s both wholesome and comforting, free from MSG and sugar. This recipe brings together tender chunks of beef, fresh vegetables, and aromatic spices for a heartwarming dish that’s perfect for any meal.

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 kg beef, cut into cubes
  • Carrots, cut into chunks (to taste)
  • 1 large potato, peeled and diced
  • Cabbage, roughly chopped (to taste)
  • 1 stalk celery, sliced
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 1 large tomato, cut into wedges
  • Spices:
    • Whole black peppercorns, crushed
    • Red onions, sliced (to taste)
    • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
    • Salt, to taste
  • Water, enough to cover the ingredients
  • Cooking oil or margarine, for sautéing
  • Fried shallots, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ingredients:

    • Begin by cutting the beef into small cubes and prepping the vegetables: slice the carrots, dice the potato, chop the cabbage, and slice the celery. Set aside.
  2. Sauté Aromatics:

    • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a small amount of cooking oil or margarine over medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and sauté until fragrant and golden.
  3. Fry Red Onions:

    • Add the sliced red onions to the pot and fry until they are softened and lightly browned. This will add a rich flavor base to your soup.
  4. Cook the Beef:

    • Add the cubed beef to the pot and cook until the meat is browned on all sides. Pour in enough water to cover the beef. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook until the beef is tender, which should take about 1-1.5 hours. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface during cooking.
  5. Add Vegetables:

    • Once the beef is tender, add the diced potatoes, carrots, and cabbage to the pot. Continue to simmer until the vegetables are cooked through.
  6. Season the Soup:

    • Stir in the crushed black peppercorns and salt to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
  7. Finish the Soup:

    • Add the tomato wedges, celery slices, and chopped green onions to the pot. Simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  8. Serve:

    • Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with fried shallots for added crunch and flavor.

Enjoy this hearty and flavorful Sayur Sop Daging Sapi, a perfect example of Indonesian comfort food that’s both nutritious and satisfying.
