Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Cut your beef chuck or stewing beef into uniform 1-inch cubes. Dice your onion, slice your carrots and celery, mince your garlic, and grate or finely mince your ginger. If using spinach, give it a quick wash and roughly chop it.
  2. Brown the Beef: Heat a tablespoon of cooking oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes in a single layer and sear until deeply browned on all sides. Remove the browned beef to a plate and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Aromatics: Reduce the heat to medium. Add a little more oil to the pot if needed. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften and the onion is translucent.
  4. Add Garlic and Ginger: Stir in the minced garlic and ginger. Cook for just another minute until fragrant.
  5. Deglaze and Build the Broth: Pour in about half a cup of beef broth or water, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot. Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the remaining beef broth, bay leaf, and soy sauce.
  6. Simmer to Tenderness: Bring the soup to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for at least 1.5 to 2 hours until the beef is incredibly tender.
  7. Cook the Noodles and Quick-Cooking Vegetables: Once the beef is tender, increase the heat to bring the soup back to a rolling simmer. Add your egg noodles and cook according to package directions. About 2-3 minutes before the noodles are done, stir in any quick-cooking vegetables.
  8. Adjust Seasoning and Serve: Remove the bay leaf. Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed. Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with a drizzle of sesame oil and fresh herbs if desired.

Nutrition

Keywords: Don't skimp on browning the beef for rich flavor. A long, gentle simmer is key for tender beef. Add noodles towards the end to prevent them from becoming mushy. Customize your vegetables based on what you have on hand.
