Shirataki Noodles With Broccoli Sauce Food

SHIRATAKI NOODLES

Steps:

• For the broth: Whisk the mirin, sake and soy sauce in a large measuring cup until combined. If adding the sugar, mix in until most of it is dissolved. Set aside.
• For the assembly: Rinse the noodles in a colander under cold running water until the odor is completely neutralized, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain well.
• Add the onion to the bottom of large pot or Dutch oven with a lid. Follow with the shirataki noodles. Add the bok choy, carrots, cabbage, tofu and shiitake mushrooms to the pot (pack in the ingredients as the mushrooms and greens will cook down). Carefully pour in the prepared broth.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover and cook until the vegetables are tender and cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. (If you want more broth, add some water.) Uncover and add the beef on top in a single layer. Cover again and cook until the beef is cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. (If some spots are still red/rare, feel free to ladle over hot broth from the bottom.) Serve immediately with the broth.
