Radish and Brisket Stew
This hearty Beef Brisket and Radish Stew is the ultimate comfort food for cold winter days! Tender beef brisket is slow-cooked to perfection with aromatic spices like star anise, cinnamon, and bay leaves, then combined with hearty radish pieces for a satisfying texture. The rich broth is deepened with fermented bean paste, five-spice powder, and a touch of balsamic vinegar for a savory, umami-packed flavor. Garnished with fresh coriander, this stew is best enjoyed with steamed rice, soaking up every drop of the fragrant, soul-warming broth. The long, gentle stewing ensures melt-in-your-mouth beef and radish infused with warm spices—a truly delicious and nourishing meal!

1. Step 1
Cut the beef brisket into large pieces.
2. Step 2
Put the beef brisket into a pot with cold water, bring to a boil, skim off the foam, and remove the beef.
3. Step 3
Change to a stew pot, add half a pot of clean water, and put in the beef brisket. Then add cooking wine, bay leaves, star anise, cinnamon, ginger slices, and scallion segments. Bring to a boil over high heat.
4. Step 4
After boiling, cover the pot, and stew over low heat for 1 hour.
5. Step 5
Cut the radish into large irregular pieces (it’s best to use white radish, but I can only find green radish in my local store, so I’ll make do).
6. Step 6
After 1 hour, add the radish pieces, and season with fermented bean paste, stir-fry oil, five-spice powder, and white pepper powder. If it’s not salty enough, add a little salt. Continue to stew for 40 minutes.
