Posted by Chai Leng | Oct 20, 2016 | Asian, Meat, Recipes, Slow Cooking/Braising, Vegetables |

BBraised Beef Brisket & White Radish‘s usually made with beef brisket and tendon but it’s quite difficult to source brisket here. So when I found it, I immediately thought of making this dish.

The title says it all. Kefta is the type of snack that is on sale in bus and train stations throughout North Africa and the Middle East. It’s cooked on the spot and eaten straight from the pan.
