We are glad to have Lucy demonstrates in the Gilmore Park Church Community Kitchen. Lucy has signed up for a pharmacy course and once her class starts in early March, she will not be able to attend the community kitchen anymore. We do wish her the best in her future undertakings.
Lucy made this spicy Beef Jerky in the community kitchen. She brought some of these Home-made Beef Jerky for us to try on a previous meeting and all of us love it. We are glad that she can show us how to make it. These spicy beef jerky is so good that we cant stop snacking on it. If you cant eat spicy food, you can leave out the hot chili powder. We actually made two batches, one with hot chili powder and another without because Frank cant take spicy food. They are both good but I preferred the spicy one, of course. According to Lucy, after refrigeration, it will not tastes as spicy as it just comes out from the oven.
Ingredients
- 1kg stewing beef
- 40ml water
- 90ml soy sauce
- 50ml sugar
- 12.5ml (2 1/2 teaspoons) ground Szechuan pepper ground (dry roast whole Szechuan pepper corn until fragrant, place in a ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to crush the pepper until fine)
- 12.5ml (2 1/2 teaspoons) hot chili powder
- 3 to 5 star anise
- 3 to 5 thin slices of ginger
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Very yummy! I end up using Angus beef stew for it and it was very juicy and delicious. I don’t think you have to worry about how long it can be kept in the fridge as it is all gone in no time.
Thanks for the recipe!
