Description
Semur is an Indonesian method of braising anything with soy sauce and spices. Indonesians adopted the habit of using soy sauce from the Chinese, but they use their own version called kecap manis, which is soy sauce reduced with sugar to a syrupy consistency. Here’s our version of semur, made with beef and potatoes.
