• 1/4 Kabocha squash
• 200 grams Ground meat - mixed beef and pork (frozen is OK)

• 2 tbsp Sugar (white sugar)
• 2 tbsp Shiro-dashi

1. Put the water, sugar and shiro-dashi in a pan.
2. Mix to dissolve.
3. Cut the kabocha squash up.
4. Put the kabocha squash into the pan.
5. Put the lump of ground meat on top.
6. (You can use a frozen chunk.)
7. Simmer over medium heat with the lid on.
8. If the frozen meat lump is not cooking through, break it up a little with chopsticks.
