Step 1

Add the water and the beef pieces into a pot and bring to a boil.

Step 2

Reduce the heat and cook the beef at low heat for 30 min.

Step 3

Cook some hard-boiled eggs and peel them and set aside.

Step 4

After 30 min, pierce the meat with a fork - if fork barely goes through the meat then it is ready for the next step.

Step 5

Add soy sauce, garlic, sugar and black pepper and cook for another 15 min.

Step 6

Add shishito peppers and eggs and boil for another 15 min or so until the meat is tender (fork will go easily into the meat). Liquid should have reduced to about 1/3 of the initial amount.
