Direction
- [Pickles] Cut the bell peppers into strips. Put ★ into a storage container, mix well, then add bell peppers and mix well. Allow the flavors to soak in until the other dishes are ready.
- [Beef shigure-ni] Prepare thinly sliced beef. Cut them into bite-sized pieces. Put the beef in the frying pan without heat. Separate the overlapping slices. Add ☆ and mix well with the meat.
- Turn on the heat, and cook over low to medium heat until it comes to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook until the beef is completely cooked.
- Remove the beef and let the sauce simmer over low heat for 2 minutes. When the sauce has reduced slightly, add the beef back in and mix quickly. Turn off the heat.
- [Broccoli rice] Chop broccoli very finely and boil or microwave. Sprinkle salt and pepper over broccoli and toss. Add cooked rice and the leftover simmering broth from beef shigure-ni and mix well.
