Cooking StepsHow to cook Homemade Beef Sauce (Chunky Style) step by step

Step 1 Detail

Finely mince the garlic and chili peppers.
Step 2 Detail

Finely chop the dried shiitake mushrooms.
Step 3 Detail

Cut the beef into small cubes — smaller for a smoother sauce texture, larger for chunky bites.
Step 4 Detail

Stir-fry the minced garlic in oil until fragrant (the chili in the photo was added by mistake at this stage).
Step 5 Detail

Add the chopped mushrooms and stir continuously over low heat until they turn lightly golden, then add the beef cubes and keep stirring.
Step 6 Detail

Add the chili peppers, doubanjiang, and sweet bean paste. Stir continuously — the doubanjiang is already salty enough, so no extra salt is needed.
Step 7 Detail

Mix everything together thoroughly until well combined.
Step 8 Detail

Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top before finishing.
Step 9 Detail

Let it cool, then transfer to a sealed jar. Keeps for several days — perfect over rice!
