Ingredients

• 8 cups (2 liter) water
• 400 gram beef stew cuts
• 2 tablespoon oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch ginger, minced
• 1 daikon (about 800 gram), peeled, halved, thinly sliced
• 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Garnish
• 2 scallions, thinly sliced
• 4 stalks cilantro, thinly sliced

Instructions

1. Boil together water and beef in a pot. Reduce heat and simmer until beef is cooked and tender, about 1 hour.
2. [Optional step] Scoop out the beef with slotted spoon, strain the soup to remove impurities and get a clear soup stock. Then return both the strained soup and beef into the pot, and bring to a boil.
3. Heat oil in a frying pan on a medium heat. Sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant and browned, about 3 minutes. Add this into the soup.
4. Add thinly sliced daikon, and season with salt, sugar, ground pepper, and ground nutmeg. Cook until daikon is cooked and look transparent. Adjust salt/sugar/pepper as needed.
5. Turn off heat. Serve the soup hot with garnishes.
