Cooking Instructions

1

Searing the Beef

In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and sear until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.

2

Sautéing Aromatics

In the same pot, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and sliced ginger. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

3

Building the Stew

Return the beef to the pot. Add the sliced carrots, beef broth, star anise, cinnamon stick, fish sauce, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

4

Simmering

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.

5

Final Adjustments

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

6

Serving

Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and a side of baguette for dipping.
