Ingredients

  • Beef chuck roast - 300g, cut into cubes
  • Daikon radish - 200g, peeled and cut into thick slices
  • Soy sauce - 2 tbsp
  • Oyster sauce - 1 tbsp
  • Ginger - 1 inch, sliced
  • Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
  • Beef broth - 250ml
  • Sesame oil - 1 tsp
  • Green onions - 2 stalks, chopped
  • Black pepper - 1/2 tsp
  • Salt - to taste
  • Cooking oil - 1 tbsp

Steps

  1. Heat the cooking oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and sliced ginger to the pot, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and beef broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the daikon radish slices, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low, allowing it to braise for about 60 minutes.
  5. After 60 minutes, check the beef for tenderness; it should be fork-tender. If necessary, continue braising for an additional 15-30 minutes.
  6. Once tender, stir in the sesame oil and adjust seasoning with salt if needed. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
