Cooking tips
The beef can be either chopped with a knife or passed through a meat grinder.
The dish's ingredients can vary, so feel free to use your imagination. For example, you could use shiitake mushrooms or button mushrooms, or use other vegetables to your liking.
Don't overdo it with sesame oil – it has a rather pungent taste.
