Ingredients
- 500 grams beef, cut into desired pieces
For the spice paste:
- 4 shallots
- 3 garlic cloves
Other ingredients:
- Oil for sautéing
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Nutmeg to taste
- Sweet soy sauce to taste
- Water as needed
Steps
-
Prepare the spice paste: Blend the shallots and garlic cloves until smooth.
-
Heat the oil: In a wok or a large pan, heat a generous amount of oil over medium heat.
-
Sauté the spice paste: Once the oil is hot, add the blended spice paste. Sauté until fragrant and the color changes to a golden brown.
-
Cook the beef: Add the beef pieces to the wok. Allow the natural juices from the beef to come out, cooking the beef while turning it occasionally.
-
Add water: Once the natural beef broth has evaporated, add enough water to the wok based on the desired consistency of the stew. If you prefer a thicker stew, add less water; for a thinner stew, add more water.
-
Season the stew: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. Stir well and adjust the seasoning if needed.
-
Add sweet soy sauce: Pour in the sweet soy sauce according to your taste preference. Stir the stew to ensure all the flavors are well combined.
-
Simmer: Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and fully cooked, and the flavors have melded together.
-
Serve: Once the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened to your liking, remove the stew from the heat. Serve hot with steamed rice for a comforting and delicious meal.
