Marinating Beef Brisket
First, you add 400ml of fish sauce and 300g of sugar into a pot, then place the pot on the stove, cooking over medium heat for about 10 minutes until the fish sauce boils and the sugar completely dissolves, then turn off the heat and let it cool.
Next, you place the beef brisket along with a few cloves of peeled garlic and 5 green chilies into a container, then pour the fish sauce and sugar mixture over it. You can marinate the beef brisket for about 2 – 3 days before it’s ready to use.
Tip:- To ensure the marinated beef brisket absorbs the flavors evenly, make sure the fish sauce covers the brisket completely when marinating!
- If you prefer a saltier flavor, you can marinate the beef brisket in the fish sauce for a longer time.
