When a pandemic hits the globe, like where we are right now, coupling it with rains (but hopefully no floods), there will be too many restrictions to move around.
Good thing we have the technology today.
Some would think that there’s no need to learn home cooking. Anyone can conveniently order a set of Beef Mami or any food online with an app or with a phone call while lying in bed.
That is a viable option.
But would it be nice to learn a new skill that not only saves you some dough but will give you a sense of achievement knowing that you’ve accomplished something that not everyone knows how to?
So, if you are sold to what I’m trying to say, here is a recipe from us that will teach you how to make five servings of Beef Mami.
Simple Ingredients of Beef Mami
The ingredients are relatively easy to find. The mainstays are, of course, beef, noodles (we use Goody egg noodles), Chinese cabbage aka Pechay Baguio, and carrots.
We’ll also prepare red and white onions, garlic, beef broth cube, star anise, salt, and ground black pepper.
Don’t forget the spring onions and hard-boiled eggs for garnishing.
Scroll further down for the complete and adjustable measurements of these ingredients according to the number of servings.

Instructions
How to Cook an Easy Homemade Beef Mami
-
Seasoning the Beef before Cooking
- In a small bowl, add ½ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of ground black pepper to the beef. (We’ll deduct these amounts of salt and pepper from their respective total measurements from our listed ingredients)
- Mix well and set aside.
-
Preparing the Noodles for Beef Mami
- Although I’m not an affiliate of the brand, I will mention the name. We’ll use the Goody Egg Noodles for our Homemade Beef Mami.
- In a separate cooking pot or saucepan, boil one liter of water.
- Cook the noodles for three to five minutes or follow the packaging’s cooking instructions.
- Using a colander, drain the noodles and set them aside.
-
Blanching Vegetables for Beef Mami
Using the same pot or saucepan to cook the egg noodles, some would add water to save water and LPG. But I prefer to use a new set of water to boil for blanching.
- Prepare a clean basin of cold water. If not available, clean tap water will do.
- Boil about one and ½ to two liters of water.
- Put the sliced Chinese cabbage and carrots into the boiling water and let it stay there for three to five minutes.
- Do not overcook. When time is up, immediately remove the vegetables from the boiling water, plunge them into the basin of cold water, or put them in a colander and place them under cold running water to halt the cooking process.
- Set aside.
-
Cooking the Beef Mami Soup
- Heat the pot or saucepan and pour canola oil.
- Stir-fry beef for five to six minutes.
- Remove beef from the pot and set it aside for a while.
- Saute garlic and chopped red onion, respectively. (Garlic to a golden brown and onion to translucent)
- Bring back the beef, then add beef broth cube and star anise. Stir until broth cube melts.
- Pour in one liter of water and bring to boil.
- Boil for 20 minutes or until beef becomes tender.
- Put some of the white onion rings and ½ of the spring onions. Simmer for two to three minutes.
- Put remaining salt and ground black pepper.
- The Easy Homemade Beef Mami recipe is now ready.
