Beef beshbarmak
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The classic recipe for beshbarmak traditionally calls for horse or lamb meat—these meats have always been used by Kazakhs throughout history. However, these types of meat have quite a specific taste, and we aren't really accustomed to them. Let's prepare beshbarmak with beef instead—it will turn out just as delicious and filling. I offer you a beef beshbarmak recipe with photos. Beshbarmak can be arranged on a large serving platter, in which case the broth is served separately. Alternatively, you can serve individual portions in bowls and pour the broth over each one—choose the method you prefer. Cooking is quite easy, and I hope you'll enjoy the result. Serve hot.

For cooking, it's better to use pork belly, as it will make the broth richer. Cut the meat into pieces, rinse, and place in a pot. Pour in water and start boiling.

Step 2
Peel the carrot and onion. Cut the carrot into several pieces and make a few cuts on the onion. Once the meat starts boiling, skim off the foam and add the vegetables to the pot. Cover the pot with a lid, reduce the heat, and cook until the meat is tender, about 2 hours. At the end of cooking, add salt and ground pepper to taste.
