Beef Slow Cook
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 pounds of beef
- 1 ½ tablespoons of fish sauce
- 1/3 teaspoon of turmeric
- 1 tablespoon of vinegar
- 3 teaspoons of dried garlic chips
- 1 ½ cups onions, to be chopped finely
- 1 teaspoon of chili powder
- 2 teaspoons of ginger powder
- 3/4 cup oil (less if beef is fatty)
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 3 bay leaves
- 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks
- 5 cloves
- 5 peppercorns
How to cook
Cut meat in 2-inch cubes. Rub well with fish
sauce, turmeric, and vinegar. Leave overnight (if
cool) or a few hours. Soak garlic chips in 2
teaspoons water. Rub beef with garlic, onion, chili,
ginger, oil, and mix well. Add water just to cover.
Cover tightly and cook over slowest fire. When
first water is gone, add small amounts as needed
till meat is tender. When tender, correct for salt.
Put in bay leaves, cinnamon, cloves, peppercorns;
cook slowly, stirring till oil on top is clear. This
recipe can be used for cheaper cuts cooked in a
crock pot.
