Roasted beef with chestnuts
The protein content of fresh chestnuts is about 5%. Fresh chestnuts contain more vitamin C than tomatoes that are recognized to be rich in vitamin C, and more than ten times that of apples. They have the functions of strengthening the spleen and stomach, replenishing qi, replenishing kidney, and strengthening the heart.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that beef is sweet and warm in nature, belongs to warming food and does not get angry. Beef tonic has the effect of replenishing qi and quenching thirst, strengthening muscles and bones, and nourishing the spleen and stomach.
Beef is extremely rich in nutrients, rich in trace elements and multiple vitamins, high in protein content, and low in fat content.
Medicinal experts believe that in winter, chestnuts and beef stewed together are very suitable for people with kidney deficiency and weak spleen and stomach function. Healthy people can strengthen their health if they eat them. But be sure to control the amount well. For example, no more than 80 grams of beef and 6 to 7 chestnuts can be used.
When making this millet beef, I put a spoonful of sweet flour sauce in the dish. The reddish-brown sweet flour sauce shined, tasted sweet, salty and had a special sauce aroma. It used to be that oyster sauce was mostly used when cooking. This time I changed the method, but I didn't think about it. The little change was amazing.
