Burdock Root Kimpira Using a Staub Casserole
- 70 grams Burdock root
- 50 grams Thinly sliced beef
- 1/2 to 2/3 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tsp A - Sugar
- 2 tsp A - Mirin
- 2 tsp A - Sake
- 2 teaspoons...10 ml A - Soy sauce
- 2 tsp A - Water
- 2 pinch A - Dashi stock powder
- 1 tsp and more B - Soy sauce
- 1 B - Toasted sesame seeds
- Slice the burdock root into slivers and soak in water to remove the bitterness.
- Drain in a colander and pat dry with kitchen paper.
- Combine the A ingredients.
- Cut the beef into 1.5 to 2 cm widths.
- This step is optional, but doing this will let the beef mix better with the burdock root.
- Heat sesame oil in a casserole over a medium heat.
- Add the beef and fry.
- After the beef is almost cooked through, add the drained burdock root and continue to fry.
- When everything is evenly coated with oil, combine with the A ingredients.
- Mix all together and cover with a lid.
- Cover with a lid and turn the heat to low.
- Set your timer for 8 minutes.
- Turn the heat off after the 8 minutes are up.
- Let stand covered for 5 minutes.
- Remove the lid.
- Add the B ingredients and cook over low-medium heat.
- Fry the contents uncovered.
- Quickly stir and evaporate any excess moisture in the pot.
- It is done and you can eat it straight away.
- I like bigger slivers of burdock root because they have a crispier texture.
- The beef absorbs the flavour well and is tasty.
- I love tsukudani, but I love kimpira more.
- You can make this dish with just burdock root as well.
- In that case, use the same amount of burdock root, but reduce the amount of other ingredients by half.
- It is the best to use a 16 cm round pot as well.
- Note: The taste and texture will vary according to the size of the burdock root pieces.
- Adjust the cooking time if you cut the burdock into smaller and thinner pieces or if you use shop-bought shredded burdock root.
