Slow cooked beef lauya soup is a tasty and delicious beef soup that is so tender. I enjoyed every bit of this dish and I thought that it even tasted better with a dip of patis (fish sauce), lemon, and chili flakes. Imagine having a warm soup with delicious beef that literally melts in your mouth; it took me 2 cups of rice to realize how good this dish was.
It is easy to prepare this Slow Cooked Beef Lauya Soup. However, you really need to have patience because it takes a long time to get the beef ready. You will also need a slow cooker to get the best result. This Slow Cooked Beef Lauya Soup is called as such because it makes use of ginger; this is known as luya or lauya in Filipino.
I think that Beef Lauya is best to keep you warm during cold weather. The warm soup and the ginger (along with the peppercorns) warm the body and can make you feel more comfortable. This is what I felt after having this dish.
Beef Lauya has many versions in the Philippines. This particular version is just one of the many ways you can make beef lauya. Other versions are similar to beef nilaga (boiled beef), except that these make use of ginger.
How to Cook Beef Lauya Soup
This Beef Lauya Soup version might be the simplest to make. Since we are using a crock pot or slow cooker, all we need is to combine all the ingredients together in the pot (except for scallions and fish sauce). This will need to slow cook (cook under very low heat) for quite a while until the meat gets very tender. Slow cooking food also makes it more flavorful because it releases optimal flavors from each ingredient.
Add the fish sauce and scallions towards the end and it is ready to be enjoyed. This is best eaten during cold days because it can help you feel warm and comfortable. Do you have your own version of cooking beef lauya? How do you cook it?

Hi hello!
I been following you soo much and it makes me soo happy to be able to cook Filipino Food, but i wanted to confirm did you mean to slow cook it on LOW MODE for 8-10 hrs? Or HIGH MODE 8-10 hours? I will be using a crock pot. I am assuming you meant LOW MODE for 8-10 hours. && I want to use Cabbage also do I throw that in with the whole ingredients in the beginning?
Thank u.
Vanjo Merano says
Hi Rhanie. Yes, use the low setting. If you will be using high mode, you can set it to 4 to 6 hours (but low for 8 to 10 hrs. is recommended).
Throw in all the ingredients at once. All you need to do at the end is to enjoy your food 🙂

Good morning.
Ginagawa ko po sya ngayon, clarification lang po.
Cook on HIGH for 8-10 hrs talaga?
Thank you for the information.
And thank you for making this site.
Vanjo Merano says
Nikki, please be reminded that this recipe makes use of a slow cooker equipment (or crock pot) in low mode. This is the reason why the amount of time needed is around 8 hours. You can also adjust the slow cooker to high mode, which will only require you to complete the dish within 4 to 5 hours.

Hi Vanjo, been watching your Youtube videos for years! Keep up the good work on your cooking demos!
On this recipe, I’ll try it this weekend, pero, why did you use garlic powder vs. fresh garlic? Is it just your preference? I like fresh garlic but also like garlic powder too.
Vanjo Merano says
Garlic powder dilutes faster with any liquid and it more convenient because I can just throw it in anytime. Either forms of garlic will do for this recipe, go with your preference.
Mein says
How much garlic powder?
Vanjo Merano says
use 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of garlic powder.
