Wash the beef and cut into (30mm)
chunks. Place in a pot of cold
water to cover and bring to a
boil. Let boil 1 minute, then
remove and drain the beef and
set aside.
- Peel and wash the potatoes and
cut into triangles or chunks the
same size as the beef. Peel the
carrot and dice or cut into small
slices.
- Heat the water in a wok, or
a pot or a casserole, and add
the scallions, ginger, and ground
peppercorn. Add the beef chunks
and vegetable oil, and bring to
a boil. Reduce the heat to a slow
simmer. Cover and simmer for 1
hour, or until the beef is cooked
but fork-tender. Add the potatoes,
carrots, soy sauce, and salt.
Continue simmering until the beef
is tender, checking the water
and replenishing if necessary
. If excess water remains when
the beef is cooked, reduce to
the desired amount by boiling
over high heat. Add the MSG (optional)and
sprinkle the coriander over the
beef and serve.
