Here is my version of a crimson meat stew that is terribly overall in Chinese language households. The identify is my strive at a literal translation of the Chinese language form of braising meats with soy sauce, wine, and sugar. I integrated some passe substances (wide identify anise and rock sugar) and a few which would be certainly now not (lime). The utilization of some bone additionally gives a well off taste, but is non-mandatory. The sauce works well with noodles or rice for a comforting dinner. The stew is additionally in most cases at risk of receive a crimson meat noodle soup that is extremely best to warm you up from the chilly. —monkeymom

I loved this dish. It used to be every thing I believed it could maybe doubtless well be: well off, complicated and comforting. Monkeymom’s timing labored completely, too — the crimson meat used to be fork-soft after 2 hours in the oven. Her suggestion of cooking the greens individually used to be blueprint on; I cooked enough greens for easiest 2 servings, and am now in an enviornment to freeze the rest of the stew, with out the greens, for a well off crimson meat noodle soup per Monkeymom’s solutions in a pair of months. —Tarragon
