Beef Mun Fan (Silky Braised Beef Gravy)
February 22, 2022
Ingredients A
200g of thinly sliced beef
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp sweet soy sauce
1 tsp white pepper
Ingredients B
2 garlic (chopped)
2-inch of ginger (sliced)
500ml of water
2 tbsp chicken/beef stock
1 tbsp sweet soy sauce
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp black pepper
1 cup of Choy Sum/Bok Choy (cut into finger lengths without the thick stem)
2 tbsp cornstarch (mixed with 1/2 cup of cold water to make a slurry)
1 egg (lightly beaten)
Salt and sugar to taste
Instructions
- Marinate ingredients A for about 30 minutes.
- In a hot oiled wok, add in the marinated beef and let it sear and char on one side for a few minutes before stirring.
- After the beef has slightly charred, add in the chopped garlic and sliced ginger with more oil if needed. Sauté until fragrant.
- Add in water and chicken stock. Leave to boil.
- Add and adjust the seasonings (soy sauce, fish sauce, black pepper, salt and sugar).
- Lower the heat and add in the cornstarch slowly until you reach the desired consistency. I liked it somewhere in between.
- Slowly pour the beaten egg in a circular motion and immediately stir slowly also in a circular motion.
- Remove from heat immediately after 2-3 stirs. Pour over white rice or a simple egg/garlic fried rice.
