Beef Hotpot Recipes

EASY BEEF HOTPOT

Steps:

• Cut each onion into eight wedges. Roughly chop the carrots and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Put the kettle on.
• Heat a large non-stick pan, add the mince and fry quickly, stirring all the time, until evenly browned. Crumble in the stock cubes and mix well. Add the prepared vegetables, stir them around, then pour in 900ml/1½ pints of hot water from the kettle. Bring to the boil.
• Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes, until the veg are tender. Stir in the baked beans and a generous splash of Worcestershire sauce and heat through. Taste and add salt and pepper if necessary.
• Scatter over the parsley, then ladle the hotpot into bowls. Put the Worcestershire sauce bottle on the table in case anyone fancies a bit more spice.

CHINESE HOT POT

Steps:

• Arrange the fresh ingredients on plates. Arrange the similar kinds of ingredients on the same plate. See picture above.
• Add the cooking oil in a skillet. When it's heated, make the Garlic Oil by frying the minced garlic until they turn light brown (do not fry until medium brown). Turn off the heat and transfer the garlic oil to a small bowl. Let cool.
• Turn on the Instant Pot and set it to Saute mode, for 30 minutes. Add the Kitchen Basics® Original Chicken Stock, water and McCormick Ground White Pepper. Bring the broth to boil.
• Add the napa cabbage first and cook for 1 minute.
• Add each ingredient into the Instant Pot in the following order, in batches: fish balls, chicken, tofu, mushrooms, shrimp, salmon, scallops and baby bok choy. Do not use up all the ingredients. The ingredients should be cooked in the hot pot in 2 to 3 bathes.
• When the soup comes to a boil, add some garlic oil on top. Stir to mix well. Ladle the ingredients and some soup into serving bowls and serve immediately with the Condiment. After you finish the first round, continue to cook the remaining ingredients in the soup until all ingredients are used up.

LANCASHIRE HOT POT

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Saute onion until soft and deep golden in color. Remove from skillet and set aside. Add lamb to skillet and fry (in batches if necessary) until rich chestnut brown in color, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain fat and reserve.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Spread 1/2 of the potatoes in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place browned lamb and onions on top, then sprinkle with thyme and season to taste. Cover with remaining potatoes, season to taste and dot with butter. Pour stock over all.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Note: If casserole is drying out while cooking, add more stock as needed. If casserole is browning too quickly, cover with aluminum foil.

BEEF HOTPOT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 170C/325F/Gas 3.
• Season the beef with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat a large casserole dish until very hot then add the oil and a small knob of butter. Fry the beef until browned all over, then remove from the pan and set aside. (You may need to do this in batches.)
• Add the onions and another knob of butter to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the carrots and cook for a further minute.
• Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Then gradually add the red wine, stirring until smooth. Add the browned beef back to the pan with the stock, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and bring to the boil. Stir in the fresh thyme, then arrange the potatoes on top. Dot the surface with the remaining butter.
• Cover with a lid and cook in the oven for one hour or until the potatoes are crisp and golden brown on top.
• Remove the lid and increase the heat to 200C/400F/Gas 6 for 30 minutes. Serve the hotpot with buttered boiled greens and the remaining red wine.

KOREAN BEEF HOT POT, BULGOGI JEONGOL

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients for the sauce in a medium size mixing bowl and stir well until sugar has completely dissolved.
• Bring thinly sliced beef and pour half of the sauce. Mix well and set aside to marinate the beef. You could marinate for over night but it's not necessary. Let it marinate while you're preparing the veggies and other ingredients will be enough time!
• Drain konnyaku noodles and rinse under hot water for 1 to 2 minutes then drain.
• Spread sliced onion on bottom of the shallow large pot. Arrange the rest of the vegetables, tofu and konnyaku noodles in the pot and leave the center.
• Place the bulgogi in the center and pour the rest of the sauce around, but not on top of the bulgogi. Pour water from the side of the pot and sprinkle some sesame seeds right on top to garnish. Cover with a lid. We usually serve this jeongol (hot pot) to the dinner table, and eat while it's cooking. So if you have a portable gas stove, please do so! It's so much more fun!
• Bring it to boil over high heat and when it starts boil, start move around the bulgogi in the middles so the beef will cook evenly. Keep boiling for 5 minutes or until bulgogi is fully cooked and vegetables are soften. It's ready to eat! Enjoy!
