Instructions

  1. Add cubed beef and cornstarch to a gallon-sized freezer bag, then shake well until the meat is fully coated in cornstarch.
  2. Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, followed by the beef covered in cornstarch. Stir to combine.
  3. Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or on LOW for 8 hours.
  4. If the sauce is too thin and you prefer a thicker consistency, mix 1/4 cup of beef broth with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Add this mixture to the slow cooker, stirring gently to combine. Let it cook on low for another 20 minutes. The sauce will thicken as it simmers.
  5. Serve over rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.

Notes

  • Cooking meat in the slow cooker is supposed to make it tender and juicy. But using a lean cut of beef like sirloin will turn it into a piece of shoe leather. Instead, use a cut of meat with fat, like chuck roast, brisket, or stewed meat. 
  • Cooking it in the slow cooker means it has to be cooked long enough for the collagen to break down and become tender and for the fat to melt. But be careful not to overcook the meat, or it will become dry and chewy. I recommend cooking it for seven to eight hours on low, but check it after seven hours. If the meat is 140 degrees F, it is done. 
  • The best meat dishes start with quality meats, preferably organic, grass-fed beef for this recipe. 
  • Make sure the pieces are all cut into similar 1½ inch sizes so they will cook evenly. 
  • Cornstarch is important in this recipe. Do not try to substitute it with flour, as the results will not be the same. 
  • Be sure to use low-sodium beef broth so your dish is not too salty. 
  • I do not brown my beef for this recipe because I wanted it to be an easy one-pot meal, but it will add extra flavor and juiciness if you have time. 
  • This is best cooked on low for eight hours.
