Spicy Beef & Nian Gao

A spicy dish that will clear your sinuses and warm your soul. I really like this dish with pork, but it’ll work with the beef. I used shaved steak, but any beef is fine if it’s sliced thin.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Get your veggies in order. (The asparagus was a side dish. Disregard that). Season your meat with the spices, a clove of garlic and a 2 count of chilli oil. Go easy on the 5 spice, it can be overwhelming. A couple shakes goes a long way.
- 2
Bust out the Nian Gao and get some water boiling. Get a good handful and separate them so they’re not stuck together when boiling. You’re going to add that to the boiling water when you start stir frying your veggies.
- 3
Get some canola oil in your pan and add in the garlic, onion and peppers. Heat the veggies with a little salt and pepper. Once they’re good and fragrant, which will be fast, add in the beef. Let that cook for a minute and add a touch of soy sauce. By now, the nian gao should be floating. Add it into your pan and mix well.
- 4
Take a couple ladles of the nian gao water and add it into the stir fry. Mix. Add dissolved cornstarch and water to it and mix until the liquid has thickened.
- 5
Top with green onions and a little chilli oil. Serve with rice and your choice of sides.

Beijing Beef Beijing Beef
This is an Americanized Chinese dish that is a popular take-out choice. The beef cooks up nice and tender thanks to a velveting step that uses cornstarch and baking soda.

Nan's Beef & Noodles Nan's Beef & Noodles
The important components to the tastiest pot of beef & noodles are the rich broth, the right noodles, and low, slow cooking.NOTES:The broth ingredients may sound a bit odd, but trust me; it'll be SO flavorful! The addition of the red wine vinegar makes salt unnecessary....DON'T add salt!....and it tenderizes the beef. There won't be any vinegar flavor in the finished dish.Cut your stew beef pieces in fourths. You want them smaller for more uniform distribution with the noodles.DON'T substitute a different brand noodle. Reames frozen noodles are thick and chewy, hold up well to my slow cooking method (and when leftovers are reheated), and they add the perfect creamyness to the broth. Maggie Conlon -
