Ingredients
- 2 lbs Beef shanks
- 1 lb Beef marrow bones
- 10 cups Water
- 1 large Onion
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1/2 head Cabbage
- 1 bunch Bok choy
- 2 tbsp Fish sauce
- 1 tsp Black peppercorns
Instructions
- 1Place the 2 lbs of beef shanks and 1 lb of beef marrow bones into a large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the 10 cups of water, 1 large onion (peeled and quartered), 4 cloves of garlic (smashed), and 1 tsp of black peppercorns to the pot.
- 2Bring the contents of the pot to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, immediately reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer gently for 3 hours, or until the beef shanks are very tender when pierced with a fork.
- 3Remove the lid from the pot. Add the 1/2 head of cabbage (cut into large wedges) and 1 bunch of bok choy (trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces) to the pot. Continue to simmer, covered, for another 30 minutes, or until the cabbage and bok choy are tender.
- 4Stir in the 2 tbsp of fish sauce. Taste the broth and add more fish sauce if desired, but do not add anything else.
- 5Serve the Keto Bulalo hot in bowls, ensuring each serving gets some beef shanks, marrow bones, and vegetables.
