How to Make Beef Stew With Star Anise
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, pour in 6 cups of beef broth.
- Add 1 lb beef stew meat (cut into 1-inch cubes), 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 tablespoons chopped coriander roots, 2 cinnamon sticks, 2 star anise pods, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 30 minutes, or until the beef is very tender.
- Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface using a slotted spoon.
- While the stew simmers, prepare your garnish by dividing 1 cup of bean sprouts evenly among four bowls.
- After 30 minutes, carefully remove the cinnamon sticks and star anise pods using a slotted spoon and discard.
- Ladle the hot stew over the bean sprouts in each bowl. Garnish generously with 2 tablespoons chopped scallions and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
