Instructions

1. Step 1

2. Step 2

Step 2
Prepare the seasonings: chop the fresh ginger into small pieces and cut the scallions into small circles.

3. Step 3

Step 3
After preparing all the ingredients, blanch the beef in cold water with half of the cooking wine. Remove the foam and cook until the beef changes color, then drain and set aside.

4. Step 4

Step 4
Start making the golden soup. Use the golden yellow Hainan yellow lantern pepper sauce, which has a strong spicy flavor and a rich garlic flavor, and does not catch fire. Combine it with yellow bell pepper, tomato sauce, and white vinegar to form a colorful and golden sour soup. Heat about 35ml of salad oil in a wok, add peppercorns, and then add ginger and scallions (leave some for decoration). Stir-fry and add the yellow lantern pepper sauce, wild mountain pepper, and tomato juice.

5. Step 5

Step 5
Prepare a container for serving, such as a medium-sized deep soup bowl. Place the white radish slices evenly in the container. Filter the soup and pour it back into the wok, bringing it to a boil. Add the enoki mushrooms and cook for about one minute, then remove and place on top of the white radish.

6. Step 6

Step 6
Bring the soup to a boil again, add the beef, and pour in the remaining cooking wine and white vinegar. If the soup is too much, boil it uncovered for 2 minutes; if not, cover and simmer for 2 minutes, adjusting the heat according to personal preference.

7. Step 7

Step 7
After cooking the beef, pour it into the container with the soup. Quickly brush the wok, reheat it, and add a small amount of salad oil. Sprinkle the remaining scallions and small millet pepper over the beef, and pour the hot oil over it. The dish is now ready to be served.
