Recipe for braised beef and potato braised beef brisket

Step 1

Cut the brisket into 2cm cubes, rinse it with water a few times, it should be good if there is no blood.

Step 2

Submerge beef in a large pot under cold water, add half ginger slices and half cooking wine (100 ml) and cook over high heat

Step 3

While the beef is cooking, chop the onion, pat the garlic, and dice the potatoes. When the blood foam comes out of the beef, take it out with a colander and throw it away. When there is no more blood foam, take it out and rinse it twice with clean water. This way the beef will be very clean. Use the water for cooking the beef. Keep it and don't pour it
