I bought some beef tendon today, which is actually beef tendon, but it has a bit more fat than normal beef tendon. In the past, I used an electric pressure cooker to cook. I used the pressure cooker to press for about 25 minutes and then returned to the pot to collect the juice. The whole process was more than 30 minutes. This time I tried it and cooked the beef shank in a wok. In only 35 minutes, the beef can be easily passed through with chopsticks. Only two more ingredients are added than usual. One is beer. Beer contains a lot of enzymes, which can soften the activity of beef and make it delicious and tender. On the other hand, beer can also decompose protein and reduce the absorption of fat. At the same time, beef has a certain degree of mutton smell, adding some wine when cooking can remove the mutton smell. The other is fresh hawthorn. Because hawthorn contains high organic acid, it can tenderize beef fiber, making it easier to stew, and it can also relieve greasiness. Finally, I added some tomatoes to stew together, half soup and half vegetable, delicious. If you also like beef, then you have a chance to try it! "

Tips:
Don't use too much hawthorn. Generally, half a catty of beef is delicious with 2 to 3 hawthorns. If you stew beef with vegetables, it is best to use sirloin, because sirloin is fat and thin, and it is delicious when stewed. The average beef tendon is too lean.
