    I would avoid using sesame oil to cook with, it’s very easy to destroy the delicate flavors. You end up using a lot more, which is so expensive. Use canola oil or vegetable oil and use the sesame seed ONLY to garnish at the end of the dish. You’ll save money and get a lot more of the delicate aromas that’s found in toasted sesame oil.

    Nice! I tried this with red soy bean paste and I used with a beef bouillon cube with water.i added a little bit of sriracha sauce, some bay leaf, and one star anise too. I also added diced potatoes and tofu. It definitely was delicious. Thank you

    Sesame oil is used for flavouring not to be used as a cooking oil because it hasn't got a very good high temp and it burns way to easy, that's basic food knowledge, I'm not having a go just pointing out . Plain rapeseed or veg oil sunflower oil is good don't use extra virgin olive oil that's to strong a flavour anxx again only for seasoning. You needed to deglaze the pan as soon as you took the beef out with just a little water, that will loosen the bits and evaporat leaving a clean bottom with all them little bits . All you've done is burn the hell out of it and your end dish will haved a burnt taste no matter what you do the dish will be ruined.

    Aka asian roux, if you're watching carbs replace starch with flour. personally I prefer slow roasting the beef to render the fat before adding in the thickener (flour or starch)
