Beef brisket stewed with potatoes

Overview

When my grandma was still alive, her favorite was beef brisket stewed with potatoes. It was a must-have for family dinners, and she liked to use an electric pressure cooker to make it. It was a clear soup, which was easy to make. The potatoes were glutinous and delicious. Later, when I was cooking for myself, it was troublesome to use a pressure cooker, so I simmered it in a casserole for a while. I like to add a little soy sauce to make it salty and umami. Served with a bowl of rice 🍚, very delicious. Share it with everyone.
