– 400 grams of beef tripe

– 1 sour star fruit

– 1 onion, 1 knob of ginger, 3 cloves of garlic, 1 chili pepper

– Seasonings: salt, seasoning powder, fish sauce, white rice wine

2. How to Make Stir-fried Beef Tripe with Star Fruit

Step 1: Preparing the Beef Tripe

– Rinse the beef tripe thoroughly, trim off any excess fat, and soak it in a mixture of water, white rice wine, and grated ginger for about 15 minutes. Then, rinse it again to ensure it’s clean.

– Wash the star fruit, trim the ends, and slice it thinly. Finely chop the garlic and onion.

Step 2: Boiling and Marinating the Tripe

– Place the tripe in a pot and boil it for 5-10 minutes. Once it’s cooked, let it cool down, and then slice it thinly.

– Marinate the tripe with half a teaspoon of seasoning powder, a pinch of salt, and a teaspoon each of finely chopped garlic and ginger.

Step 3: Stir-frying the Tripe

– Heat a wok or a large pan over medium-high heat. Add oil, and sauté the garlic and onion until fragrant. Then, add the tomato and star fruit slices.

– Toss in the marinated beef tripe and stir-fry on high heat, ensuring that you don’t overcook the tripe, as it can become tough. Adjust seasoning to taste, and turn off the heat.

Serve this delicious dish on a warm plate. The tripe should have a pleasant chewy texture, infused with the flavors of the marinade, complemented by the sour notes from the star fruit, and a mild spiciness from the chili. Enjoy this mouthwatering Vietnamese delicacy!
