Steps

1 hour

1

Wash the tendon meet
2

Heat a little oil in a frying pan and sauté the ginger until fragrant.
3

Add the beef tendon and stir-fry until it changes color and the surface is lightly seared. Check the tender of meat using fork.
4

Add the instant seasoning (大川味紅燒牛肉醬) and mix well.
5

Pour in 2 tbsp soy sauce and stir until evenly combined.
6

Bring 1.5–2 liters of water to a boil in a different pot.
7

Transfer the sautéed tendon and seasoning mixture into the pot.
8

Add 2 scallions (tied in knots), chilies, and the Chinese mixed herbs bag (宮廷滷包).
9

Add sugar and soy sauce. Adjust seasoning until it tastes good.
10

Once boiling, reduce to medium-low heat and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the tendon becomes tender. If using very thick tendon, simmer for 1–1.5 hours for a softer texture.
11

Boil noodles until cooked. Quickly blanch the greens as well.
12

Place noodles and vegetables in a bowl, then pour over the broth and beef tendon. You can use any brand of noodles you like.

Thinly slice the remaining scallions and sprinkle on top as garnish before serving.
