Everyone has a hot memory of their own. I remember the first time I stewed beef. A few years ago in the winter, there was only a bed and a kitchen in that room. A bowl full of potatoes, tomatoes and beef gave the greatest comfort to the soul. Food is always related to mood. When you are in a good mood, you can enjoy it. When you are in a bad mood, you can immerse yourself in it. You can warm yourself by eating food. You can't dissolve it quickly. I've seen a food show. It's about eating alone. But in the comments below, there are always people arguing about how imperfect the food steps are. In fact, you don't have to. Everyone has their own set of standards for food. Food never refuses you. Even if you deal with it in the most ridiculous way. That kind of mood of raising a bowl of noodles alone and looking at the heat in the cold winter can only be understood by those who have experienced it. Eating is mood. Eating is food. Food is really raw
Step1:Cut the beef into larger pieces than one bite. Because the beef will shrink, don't cut too small.
Step2:Wash the beef. Heat the water in a cold water pan.
Step3:After boiling, there is a lot of blood foam. Pour in a spoonful of cooking wine. Shake the pot and take it out. Rinse the beef with warm hot water.
Step4:Put tomatoes in hot water to boil. You can use the boiled water of the beef just now, because the skin is not needed. Until the skin blooms. Take out the cold water immediately. Remove the tomato head. Cut into large pieces. Set aside.
Step5:Add some common cooking oil (peanut oil and rapeseed oil) to the pot. Melt a large piece of butter until the butter completely dissolves and bubbles.
Step6:Quickly stir fry the tomato in the pot. It will become soft and red oil.
Step7:Sliced ginger, sliced scallion into inch sections. Put them into the pot together with the bulk. Add about three spoonfuls of ketchup. Continue to stir evenly. Put the ketchup into it. The soup turns red and thickens.
Step8:Add some boiling water. Simmer for 23 minutes.
Step9:Preheat a casserole. Pour the tomato soup into the casserole while it's hot. Put in the beef cubes that have been washed by water. Boil them again. Turn to the minimum heat. Cover and stew for 2 hours. After stewing for two hours, take out the cooked materials, scallions and ginger slices. Stir with a spoon from time to time during stewing to prevent the bottom from being battered.
Step10:Wash potatoes and carrots, peel them and cut them into a piece of hob. Add in the casserole and continue to stew for 45 minutes. Add in the salt. Stir evenly and quickly out of the pot.
Step11:If you have time, it would be better to keep it stuffy for a while. This dish is better when it's cold and hot again. It can be shared with friends and family.
Step12:Take out a bowl. Reward yourself.
Cooking tips:1. Blanch the meat. Put it in cold water. The water is clear. The stewed beef soup is clear and not muddy. The taste is corrected. 2. It's better to wash the froth with warm water. Cold water will make the beef shrink. It's not easy to boil through. 3. Domestic tomato sauce generally contains high sugar content. If you use tomato sauce for Western food, you can add a spoonful of sugar in the canteen. If you can have western style tomato paste and canned tomatoes, it will be better with this dish. This method is quite common. It tastes very good. 4. The casserole is stirred occasionally. When stewed with the soup, it is possible to paste the bottom of the pot. 5. It's best to fry it in butter. Butter is good for tomato and beef soup. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
