Instructions
Soak the beef in water for about 2 hours, and change the water 1-2 times halfway. The advantage of this is that the beef has no fishy smell and the color of the beef does not turn black.
Add water and beef to the pot, bring to a boil, skim off the froth, then cook for another 3-4 minutes and set aside.
Add oil to the pot, add Sichuan bean paste, ginger slices, bay leaves, dried chili, cinnamon, peppercorns, star anise, and stir-fry for a while.
Stir-fry beef pieces evenly, pour cooking wine.
Pour hot water, light soy sauce, teriyaki soy sauce and sugar, stew for 1 hour.
When the time is up, add salt and sprinkle green onions.
Notes
Beef should be soaked in clean water before cooking. Blanching the beef in advance can remove the blood.
