Ingredients

  • 200 g rice
  • 160 g beef
  • 70 g vermicelli
  • 74 g white onion
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs
  • 20 g snow peas
  • 30 g sake
  • 30 g mirin
  • 60 g soy sauce
  • 20 g sugar
  • 150 g water

Directions

  1. Wash the rice 2 or 3 times until the water runs clear.
  2. Cook the rice for about 10 minutes in a pressure cooker or covered saucepan. Add as much water as rice.
  3. Once all the water has evaporated, your rice is ready. Set aside.
  4. Soak the vermicelli in hot water for about 1 hour, then take them out before they are completely soft and drain.
  5. To cook hard-boiled eggs, bring water to the boil. Carefully plunge the eggs - preferably with a skimmer - into the boiling water and leave to simmer for 11 minutes. Immediately plunge them into cold water to stop the cooking process.
  6. In the meantime, slice your beef in the direction of the grain, into thin strips.
  7. Chop the onions.
  8. Prepare the sauce. Place sake and mirin in a saucepan, heat sake and mirin until boiling and stir in soy sauce, sugar and water. Set aside.
  9. Brown the meat in 2.5 tablespoons of oil. When the meat has browned, add the vermicelli and onion. Add the sauce and reduce for about 2 minutes. Be sure to keep a little sauce on hand to maintain seasoning.
  10. In 2 individual bowls, add 100 g of rice, and divide the vermicelli, meat and onions evenly over the top.
  11. Decorate with a halved egg and snow peas. Enjoy!
