List of ingredients for Braised star anise beef


* 2 tablespoons groundnut oil
* 450 g (1 lb) cubed stewing steak / chuck steak etc
* 1 clove garlic, crushed
* 3 tablespoons light soy sauce
* 1 tablespoon water - more if required
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 3 tablespoons rice wine or dry sherry
* 1 teaspoon sugar
* 2 whole star anise cloves

===Method===
* Heat the oil in a wok and brown the beef on all sides
* Add the remaining ingredients and bring to the boil, cover and reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes. I prefer to cover the wok whilst simmering, or it does dry out.
* Turn the meat over and add a little more water if the meat is drying out. Remove the cover now so it can reduce a little.
* Simmer for a further 45 minutes
* If it is too ''wet'', just turn the heat up for a few minutes and reduce a little. I think this should be quite dry, as pictured.
* Remove from the wok, discarding the star anise, keep warm and rest for 5 minutes
