Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare all the ingredients listed for the recipe. Having your ingredients ready is halfway to a successful dish!
Step 2
Gently press the thinly sliced beef brisket with paper towels to remove excess blood. This helps reduce any gamey flavors and ensures a cleaner taste. Trim the root ends of the scallions and cut them into segments about 3-4cm long. Cutting them to this length makes them easier to roll.
Step 3
Lay one slice of beef brisket flat on your work surface. Lightly dust the surface with a bit of all-purpose flour; this helps the sauce adhere better later. Place a portion of the prepared scallions at one end of the beef slice and carefully roll it up tightly, like making a sushi roll.
Step 4
Don’t worry about complex techniques! Simply place the scallions on the beef and roll them up tightly. This easy method creates beautiful, uniform rolls.
Step 5
Heat a little cooking oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Place the rolled beef and scallion bundles into the hot pan. Using chopsticks or tongs, gently roll them around to sear all sides until they are nicely browned. This step adds a wonderful toasty flavor and renders some of the fat.
Step 6
Once the rolls are beautifully seared, transfer them to a pot or a deep pan. Add all the ingredients for the braising sauce and the water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. As the sauce reduces, spoon it over the rolls repeatedly to ensure even coating and flavor penetration.
Step 7
Continue to braise until the sauce has thickened and is mostly absorbed by the rolls, leaving just a little glossy coating. Turn off the heat. Stir in the sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds right at the end. This final touch adds a wonderful aroma and nutty flavor. Your delicious Braised Beef Brisket Rolls with Scallions are now complete!
Step 8
Let the finished rolls cool slightly before serving. Once they are easy to handle, slice them in half crosswise into bite-sized pieces for a more appealing presentation and easier eating.
Step 9
These flavorful, perfectly seasoned Braised Beef Brisket Rolls with Scallions are an absolute treat served over warm rice. They make for an exceptional side dish that is sure to be a hit! Enjoy your delicious creation!
