Braised Beef Kway Teow Recipe

There’s something magical about braised beef or beef stew – think fork-tender meat in a robust & rich gravy-like sauce served over noodles or rice that soaks up every single drop of that essence. The thought of it just makes me salivate. It’s one of those classic dishes that falls into the category of comfort food i.e. home-made type that’s both hearty and wholesome. I like mine with plenty of bean sprouts, so much that you can’t even see the kway teow right at the bottom of the bowl, lol. It’s a great contrasting crunch compared to the melt-in-the-mouth soft carrots. If you like braising dishes, I’m sure you’ll enjoy this Braised Beef Kway Teow Recipe 🙂
