Miso-Braised Beef with King Mushrooms image

As much as I love a traditional beef stew, or braised beef short ribs, I like to shake things up sometimes by applying the same techniques to a few non-traditional ingredients. This melt-in-your-mouth braised beef dish is cold weather comfort food at its finest. Miso adds an extra savory element, balanced with a touch of maple syrup, which further enhances the autumnal feel. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (2 1/2 pound) boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 2-inch thick strips
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 tablespoon butter
3 king trumpet mushrooms, halved lengthwise
1 yellow onion, diced
¼ cup sake
3 tablespoons yellow miso
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons ketchup
½ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
¼ cup thinly sliced red chile pepper
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions

Steps:

  • Season beef with kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne.
  • Heat peanut oil in a pan over high heat. Brown beef strips on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Turn off heat and transfer beef to a plate.
  • Let pan cool slightly, 1 to 2 minutes; melt butter in residual heat. Turn heat to medium and add mushrooms, cut-side down. Cook until mushrooms are lightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip; continue to cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add onion and season with salt; cook until slightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir in sake and deglaze the pan, scraping up browned bits using a wooden spoon. Stir in miso, maple syrup, ketchup, and chicken broth; bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Add browned beef, mushrooms, and their juices.
