Beef Asado

This recipe I'm using is the basic of all basic asado recipe. I used to made this in large batches for our small noodle house in Valenzuela. This is what they call "pares" if you top it on garlic rice. Make it saucy and add it to a bowl of noodles, it's beef mami. I love this for the reason that it's so easy to prepare and so delicious on almost everything. Heck, I use to eat with fries. So, here it is...

Beef Asado
What you'll need:
1 kilo beef, cubed and pre-boiled
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 pcs star anise
11/2 cup beef stock
1/2 tsp dried oregano
spring onions, chopped
1/4 cup cornstarch, dissolved in
1/2 cup cold water (slurry)

How to:
1. Combine all ingredients except for the slurry in a medium sauce pan with a lid.
2. Boil and simmer for 20 minutes in medium-high heat. Stir occasionally to even the cooking process.
3. Add the slurry to thicken the sauce.
4 Season with salt and pepper according to taste.
5. Remove from heat and top with spring onions. Serve and enjoy!
