Beef Brisket in Clear Broth 清湯牛腩
You don’t have to use brisket for this recipe. Beef finger meat (rib meat), simmering short rib and skirt steak (untrimmed) all work well. It’s preferable to have a larger uncut piece of meat that has fat and membrane attached. I used a combination of brisket and finger meat. I also used beef rib bones with some meat attached to make the soup.

Fried Radish Cake in XO Sauce "XO醬炒蘿蔔糕"
This recipe is an extension of my Steamed Radish Cake recipe. Besides using XO sauce, you can consider using Chinese Barbeque Sauce (Sha cha) or any chili oil. Dipping these crispy little bites in sesame sauce and/or hoisin sauce with sprinkles of sesame seeds and green onions would work for me! My son wants to dip them in sour cream! Good thing we were out of sour cream. But I’m interested in giving that a try! You never know!

This recipe is an extension of my Steamed Radish Cake [https://auntieemily.com/steamed-radish-cake/] recipe for those who want to pan-fry the radish cake. The steamed radish cake can be cut into any size pieces and pan-fried or deep fried. You can also follow my Fried Radish Cake in XO Sauce for a popular variation. But if you like to keep it old school, serve this pan-fried option with some tea and //auntieemily.com/crystal-shrimp-dumplings/">shrimp dumplings [https://auntieemily.com/crystal-shrimp-dumplings/] (which I also have a recipe for, coincidentally, lol). And you have the perfect dimsum meal!

Beef Brisket with Chu Hou Sauce 柱侯牛腩
You can use any cut of beef or meats for this recipe. Chu Hou Sauce would also be suitable for braised goat meat. Besides white raddish, carrots and potatoes may also be used. Any kind of firm vegetable that will not fall apart during braising could be a suitable substitute. You may choose to make this the night before so that the sauce gets better absorbed and becomes even more flavourful. This is a common practice at restaurants.

Steamed Radish Cake 蘿蔔糕
Besides the radish and the flour-starch mixture, you can change or swap any of the ingredients. If you want to make it very extravagant, you can add abalone and foie gras! The amount of ingredients I added is on the loaded end. Anymore ingredients and it’ll be difficult to slice and not have it fall apart. You could reduce the ingredients by half and it would still be pretty decent. This recipe will make one 8” aluminum container plus a bit left over for a little bowl so that you can taste test it before gifting the whole cake to someone.
