Sup Daging – Malaysian Beef Soup

| 12 Comments

I’m back from a trip to Singapore, and surprisingly I was constantly thinking about cooking and blogging.. Oh well.. time for another holiday where I can do nothing and just laze around.. It was certainly very difficult to maintain the October Unprocessed Challenge, anyhow now am back home and back on track.

Sup Tulang or Sup Daging is one my favourite dishes to order when I visit a Malay eatery. Sup Tulang, literally Bone Soup in Malay, usually refers to beef soups which are made with beef that is still attached to bones. I did not have any bones, I use beef shanks instead – making it Sup Daging (Beef Soup in Malay). Using the bones develops the broth with an intense flavour and is very aromatic compare to the ones that is made with just meat and using pre-made stock

The other main ingredient is Spice Mix called Sup Bunjut, which is easily available anywhere in Malaysia. Inside you’d find a cinnamon stick, one or two star anise, green cardamom and clove with one cute little muslin parcel filled more aromatic seeds – a mixture of peppercorn, cumin, coriander, mustard seeds, star anise and shredded cinnamon. You can make your own little Muslin bundle and tie it together with a little white thread or use a tea strainer, which can easily be washed and re-used again.

The soup is then left to simmer for one and a half to two hours before rewarding you with this amazing broth eaten with either noodles, rice or flat bread.
