Beef Slices with Vegetables (Nikujaga)

For the nikujaga recipe, cut the beef into thin strips of 2 cm each. Peel and cut the onion lengthwise into 5 mm slices. Potatoes, preferably young, wash, cut in half and soak in water. Defrost frozen peas and pour boiling water for 1 minute. Peel the carrots, wash, cut lengthwise into four parts, and then - obliquely, into small slices.

In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil and lightly fry the meat and onion in it. When the meat changes color, add the potatoes, after draining the water from it. Then add carrots, pour in water so that it completely covers the meat and vegetables, and bring to a boil. Cook meat and vegetables over high heat for 2 minutes, periodically removing the foam. After stirring, reduce the heat, add seasonings and cook at a low boil under the lid for 20 minutes.

The liquid in the meat should be almost all evaporated. When the potatoes are cooked, add the peas, stir and remove from heat after 5 minutes. Ready-made meat with vegetables nikujaga immediately serve to the table, spreading it on portioned plates.
