How to Make Asian Beef And Cauliflower
- Season beef cubes with salt and pepper. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, brown beef cubes over medium-high heat in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Set aside.
- Add beef broth to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Return the browned beef to the skillet.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, or until beef is very tender.
- Add cauliflower florets and green bell pepper to the skillet.
- Stir in soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger (if using).
- Cover and simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch, brown sugar, and ¼ cup of water until smooth.
- Slowly pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
- Bring the sauce to a boil, stirring continuously until it thickens to your desired consistency (about 1-2 minutes).
- Serve the Asian Beef and Cauliflower over a bed of cooked rice.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
