Today I made a very popular, simple and traditional food Nikujyaga. Someone says it is littel difficult to make, but I don't think so. Cooking is simple and fun.
Ingredients: thinly sliced beef, potatos, carrot, onion, itokonyaku (noodle style konyaku), 3 cups dashi (niban-dashi), 1 tablespoon sugar, 3 tablespoons mirin, 1 tablespoon sake, 5 tablespoons soysauce, peas and oil.
Preparation:Peel potatos and cut in half and then into 6-8 pieces. After that soak them in water. Cut carrots into pieces smaller than the potatos. Cut itokonyaku into a easy to eat size. Cut peeled onions in half. Slice halves. Cut beef into approximate 3 cm pieces.
How to make:First heat oil in pan and lightly brown meat(do not cook meat completely). And then add onions, carrots, konyaku, potatoes. Continue to fry.
After frying for awhile, add dashi. Skim the scum (aku) that may foam to the top. Reduce heat and simmer and add sugar, sake and mirin. Place otoshibuta in pan. (otoshjibuta means a small lid that resting directly on the something in a pot or pan.) After 5 minutes, add soy sauce and cook slowly until vegatables are cooked. After the flavor has steeped in, add peas. That's all.
