Seasonings

  • [A] Soy sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 2 tbsp

Steps

  1. Slice 60g onion to about 5-6mm thickness.

  3. Bring the pot to a boil, then add 5g grated ginger. 【Pro Tip!】 Do not add the beef yet, as we want to soften the onion first.
  4. Once the onion becomes translucent, add 100g beef and 1 piece beef tallow (if the beef has little fat).
  5. Cover the pot and simmer over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes.
  6. Remove the lid and adjust the sweetness of the reduced sauce.
  7. Scatter 3 slices (40g) cheddar cheese over the beef and melt the cheese over low heat.
  8. Serve 200g warm cooked rice in a bowl.
  9. Place the simmered beef and melted cheese on top of the rice, then garnish with pickled red ginger to taste and dried parsley to taste. 【Pro Tip!】 For an enjoyable flavor change, add Tabasco to taste if you like some spice and tang.
