ONE POT JAPANESE STYLE BEEF STEW

One pot meals are in these days because it is less expensive, and generally you really don't need expensive ingredients for these types of meals. For instance in this post I'll have a recipe for a Japanese Style Beef Stew, and the ingredients can be found in most supermarkets across the country.

INGREDIENTS

3 lbs. chuck roast some fat on, and cubed in 1 inch
2 large yams cubed about 1 1/2 inches
2 medium round onions sliced
1 small head of cabbage outer leaves only
4 celery stalks sliced 1/2 inch thick
8 oz. of shitake mushrooms
2 cups of vegetable broth
1 1/2 cup of soy sauce
1 cup of sake
1/3 cup of brown sugar
1 inch ginger smashed

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large enough pot, add in a little cooking oil, and over medium high heat, brown the chuck roast.

2. Add in the yams and onions, cabbage, celery, and shitake mushrooms, also the veggie broth, soy sauce, sake, brown sugar and ginger. Cover and bring to a boil for about 3 minutes over high heat. Then once it boils for 3 minutes, immediately lower heat to a simmer still covered 20 minutes.

3. Open cover and stir pot, cover and continue to cook for 1 hour. Everything should be cooked and really melted down.

Serve with white rice
