Around the world in 8 students: Japan

I more or less invented this dish based off of different recipes that were on Japanese TV shows. I like to eat this when I’m in the mood for a bit of Italian but not too much Italian. It’s really easy to cook, so when I’m feeling lazy, this is my go-to. It also uses only one pot so there are fewer dishes to wash.

4 Italian tomatoes

2 zucchini or ½ eggplant

2 potatoes

200 grams sliced beef

1 or 2 cloves garlic

2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. sugar

3 tbsp. ketchup

3 cups water

olive oil to cook with

-Cut tomatoes into pieces, slice the zucchini and chop the potatoes into small pieces. Chop the beef into bite-sized pieces. Dice the garlic.

-Pour some olive oil in the pot and stir fry the garlic until you smell the flavor. Put the beef in the pot and stir-fry until the color changes.

-Put all the vegetables in and stir-fry until all the vegetables are coated in oil. Add the salt, sugar, ketchup, and water in the pot.

-Cover with a lid and cook for ten minutes on medium-low. Stir occasionally.

-After ten minutes, check the pot. If it’s not too watery, then it’s done.
