Japanese Beef with Sesame Veggies and Goma Dare Sauce

Steps

1. Bring a full kettle to the boil. Add rice, boiling water and a pinch of salt to a medium pot and bring to the boil with a tight-fitting lid. Reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 5 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
2. Cut cauliflower into small florets and cut bok choy leaves in half lengthways, set aside separately. Pat beef dry and season. Toss in a medium bowl with soy sauce and sesame oil.
3. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on mediumhigh heat. Remove beef from oil and soy (reserving marinade) and cook for about 2-3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered, to rest.
4. Return pan to medium heat. Add cauliflower and cook for about 2 minutes. Add broccoli and bok choy and cook for a further 3 minutes, until veggies are tender. Add reserved beef marinade, toss to coat and cook for a further 30 seconds.
5. Thinly slice beef against the grain.
6. To serve, spoon ¾ cup cooked rice into bowls and top with sesame veggies, slices of Japanese beef and a drizzle of goma dare sauce.
