Follow The Directions

01

Step
7 mins

In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and minced garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.

02

Step
12 mins

Add the beef cubes to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes.

03

Step
0 mins

Pour in the water, rice wine, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sliced shiitake mushrooms, and chile-garlic sauce. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer gently until the beef is very tender, about 1 hour.

04

Step
1 hrs

Add the sliced carrots and toasted sesame seeds to the stew. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to simmer, uncovered, until the sauce has thickened slightly and reduced by about half, approximately 15 minutes.

05

Step
15 mins

Drizzle in the sesame oil and stir to combine. Remove from heat.

For an even richer flavor, marinate the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and a touch of garlic overnight before cooking.
Adjust the amount of chile-garlic sauce to suit your preferred level of spiciness.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions and extra toasted sesame seeds. This stew is excellent served with steamed rice or noodles.
