Our tested Braised Beef Tabbouleh: delicate, generous, and balanced with soy and ginger. Serves 4 people with plenty to go around.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the soy and ginger elements, and pat the beef dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Turn up the heat and add the beef. Lower the heat, cover, and braise gently until everything is meltingly tender.
Stir in the dashi stock and the rest of the soy and ginger flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the red pepper along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Finish with the chopped scallion and serve while hot.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
