recipe: SOY BRAISED BEEF WITH PASTA

I got a little busy the last couple of days so I'm going to leave you the recipe, but with no images, I'll post them later:

for 4 serves:
800 g beef cut into strips, 400 g dry fettucine, 1 cup red whine, 3/4 cup soy sauce, 1 (full) tbs of grated ginger, 1 tbs minced garlic, 15 cm orange rind peel, 5 cups chicken stock, 2 tbs sugar, 1 cinnamon stick, olive oil, dutch carrots


1. Place whine, stock, soy, ginger, garlic, cinnamon, sugar and orange peel in a sauce pan and bring it to a boil. When it boils, reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.

2. Meanwhile heat the oil in a fry pan and cook the beef in batches.
3. Pre-heat the oven to 150C, and arrange the beef in an oven-proof dish.
4. Pour the sauce over the beef, cover with foil and cook for about 2 1/2 or 3 hours.
5. Serve with Fetuccine and steamed dutch carrots.

p.s. The longer you cook the tender the meat will get, and if you leave it to cool overnight and serve it the next day the flavours will blend perfectly.

This is a really easy recipe, but a bit time consuming so I'd recommend leaving it for a weekend or if you're having a dinner party.
