Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today, we’re going to make a hearty and delicious beef jangjorim, perfect for lunchboxes! It’s a dish loved by everyone, young and old, so be sure to follow along!
Step 2
First, rinse the beef eye of round under clean water. Place the beef in a pot, cover it with enough water to submerge, and boil over high heat for at least 20 minutes until tender. Boiling it thoroughly makes the beef wonderfully soft.
Step 3
Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the pot and gently rinse off any surface blood. Let it cool slightly so it’s easier to handle. Then, cut it into bite-sized pieces or shred it along the grain with your hands. Since it’s been boiled thoroughly, it should shred easily.
Step 4
Now, let’s prepare the braising sauce. Pour 400ml of the beef-boiling broth back into the pot. Add 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of oligosaccharide (adjust the sweetness to your liking), and a pinch of black pepper. Whisk everything together well.
Step 5
Add the prepared beef, whole garlic cloves, and chili peppers to the braising sauce. Bring it to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat. Let it simmer and reduce until the sauce thickens and coats the beef, about 15-20 minutes. Stir the beef occasionally to ensure the sauce is evenly distributed.
Step 6
And there you have it – delicious beef jangjorim! The chewy texture of the beef combined with the pungent garlic and slightly spicy chili peppers creates a truly exceptional flavor. It’s perfect as a side dish for rice or even as a snack for kids!
