STAFF MEAL #13:
Taiwanese Beef Stew
One of my comfort foods are stews. I love making them and eating them. Here's one I made some time back for our staff meal inspired by Taiwanese braised beef stew.
I swapped out the Chinese fermented bean paste with Korean bean paste and gochujang which turned out pretty close to the flavors of the Taiwanese beef stew.
Simple recipe that you can try it too.

❇️🍗 Coriander & Cumin Roast Chicken
Young coriander
Cumin powder
Garlic
Lime
Olive oil
Young coriander has a less invasive taste compared to old coriander but still giving you all those fresh and floral notes.
👉 In a blender, blitz fresh coriander, garlic, juice of a lime, cumin powder, olive oil and some salt to taste.
Marinade the chicken of your choice, here I'm using chicken breast and leave it to marinade for at least 15 minutes in room temperature or overnight in the fridge.
Oven roast it for 8 minutes at 180 degrees or 35 minutes at 100 degrees then searing it for 1 minute on each side in a pan on high heat with some oil.
Goes well with your favorite sides like potatoes or a salad or on a bowl of warm ramen soup like the one I did here 👇
