You’ll Need:
For stewing the beef:
- 600g / 21oz beef, cut in cubes
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons Sichuan chili bean paste (see note 1)
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional)
- 1500ml / 6.5 cups hot water
- 1 thumb-sized ginger
- 2 stalks spring onion, cut in sections
- 1 bay leaf
- 1-star anise
- 1 small piece Chinese cinnamon (cassia cinnamon)
- 10 Sichuan pepper
- 1 pinch fennel seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
You also need:
- 4 portions noodles (see note 2)
- Spinach (or pak choi / bok choy)
- Fresh coriander, chopped
How to Make:
- Blanch the beef: In a pot, blanch beef cubes in boiling water to remove any impurities. Drain, then put the beef back into the pot.
- Season the soup: Heat up oil in a wok (or a deep frying pan) over medium heat. Stir in garlic, Sichuan chili bean paste and chili powder (if using). Cook until fragrant (do not burn them). Pour in water. Cover and leave to simmer for 5 minutes.
- Simmer the beef: Through a sieve, pour the soup into the beef pot. Add ginger, spring onion, and all the other spices (see note 3). Bring the soup to a boil then simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours. When cooked, discard the ginger, spring onion and spices.
- Cook the noodles: Cook the noodles in a clean pot with plenty of water. At the end of the process, quickly blanch spinach (or pak choi) in the same pot. Drain and rinse under cold water for a few seconds.
- Assemble the bowl: Place the noodles and spinach in serving bowls. Pour in the broth then place the beef on top. Sprinkle coriander to garnish. Serve warm (see note 4).
Notes
1. Different brands of Sichuan chili bean paste (aka spicy Doubanjiang, 辣豆瓣酱) may vary in saltiness, hotness, and texture. Adjust the volume accordingly. Best to use Pixian Douban, a well-known variety, which needs to be coarsely chopped prior to cooking.
2. You may use fresh noodles or dried noodles. In terms of volume, I usually cook about 80-100g / 2.8-3.5 oz dried noodles for each person. Follow the instructions on the package. Please note that you are not supposed to boil the noodles in the beef broth since the starch coming off the noodles will change the flavor and the consistency of the broth.
3. If available, use a closed tea strainer to keep spices in while simmering. Later you will be able to discard them easily.
4. You may freeze the meat and soup in the freezer for up to 1 month. Defrost in the fridge then heat up again prior to serving.
