Beef Pares pala ang tawag sa menu na ito, tried it few times and I kinda like it..
This seems easy to prepare. will cook it nga for the kids' baon!
nakakagutom, i am just wondering ano ang pwedeng pamalit sa star anise? baka wala dito yan eh. 🙂
will try to cook this one in the future! my husband loves anything with beef hehe
My husband and I like pares, we do not care even if we buy it on the streets, lol! The sweetness makes pares delicious.
My college days are reminded of Beef Pares. My boy-friends and I usually go to paresan after gimiks at around 1-3am! I will forever love Beef Pares. Even my hubby and I still date in paresan! I love Beef Pares, need I say more of my love for it?! Thanks for sharing this another great Filipino menu! 🙂
Is this like beef stew or beef brisket maki? Anyway, as delicious the picture might look, I am not tempted to eat the food because of my vegetarian diet. Actually we have a similar recipe but we use gluten or fake meat.
i'm always concerned about cooking beef, scared that it might end up like rubber sponsored by firestone, LOL! good thing beef pares is available almost everywhere 🙂
I've heard pares before and I think they're not serving it here in Davao (or I just don't know a carenderia that serves pares).
I used to eat a lot of beef pares when I was little, and your post just made me crave for some! It's been years already since my last spoonful! 😀 Anyway, I'll try making this soon. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
I remember this at the time we were in Manila.
Hubby loves pares so I think I'll give this recipe a shot. I don't have star anise though. You think I can substitute anisado? How much anisado should I use?
Wow. So many ingredients for cooking pares.
I'm kind of confused with the "Pares" term. Is it called Beef Pares because it is paired with rice or is it really called that way even without rice? 🙂
Yummy!!! I love any recipe with soy sauce. I should try this one. My sister in law will definitely like it. Except for the husband, he don't like anything that has a sweet taste in the food (not unless it's desserts).
I tried this from my brother's fave pares store. Beef is tender and tasty!
It looks delicious… even though I don't eat meat. 😉

Thank you for sharing. I think Beef Pares is a mus-eat in this chilly weather..
I'm not very familiar with beef pares maybe it's because it's not as popular here in Cebu as it is in Luzon. But I'd like to see and try to cook this. 🙂
Mmm, made me crave for pares! I wonder what soup they use for the side? I also saw a recipe for Chowking's beef brisket and it has star anise too.
Naku! my son loves this a lot. Since I don't have time to cook, I just from a nearby noodle house. Thanks for sharing the recipe 🙂
I love pares! And good thing my hubby loves it too. So everytime we just thought of going to our favorite pares place, we can always go. Anytime.
my husband is going to love this post. he loves Pares!
Not familiar with beef pares too. But I think I should try this someday.
it looks so yummy! i have only tried it once, haha
The recipe looks simple. Can a non-cook like me do this? It looks great!
Yummy beef soup with rice…something which I will certainly eat for lunch 🙂
