Beef Fatta

Step 1

Cooking

To prepare the demi-glace sauce, mix Maggi® Demi – Glace powder with warm water, whisk well on a medium high heat and bring it to boil.

Step 2

Cooking

To prepare the braised beef, sear the brisket on high heat in a pan until it is browned and has a nice crust. Move the seared brisket to a deep oven tray and immerse it in the Maggi® Demi – Glace sauce. Add chopped onions and carrots. Cover the tray tightly with aluminum foil and slow cook in the oven at 135◦C for over 5 to 6 hours or until it is soft enough for a piece to be easily pulled away with a fork. Add water periodically to ensure that the beef is immersed and remains moist. Once the meat is well cooked, remove it from the oven and pull the beef with a fork and keep it aside for later.
