Braised Beef Brisket with Red Wine

Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   Blanch beef brisket in boiling water for 5-7 minutes to remove impurities. Drain and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Pat dry.

2. 2

   Heat cooking oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ginger and smashed garlic, sauté until fragrant.

3. 3

   Add beef brisket chunks and sear until browned on all sides.

4. 4

   Pour in red wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the alcohol to evaporate.

5. 5

   Add beef broth, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, star anise, and cinnamon stick. Stir well.

6. 6

   Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60 minutes.

7. 7

   Add chopped onion, carrots, and potatoes to the pot. Stir gently. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30-40 minutes, or until beef and vegetables are fork-tender.

8. 8

   Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot with steamed rice.
