Step 1
Soak 1 cup short grain rice with 2 cups water. Soaking the rice in water helps soften the rice as short grain rice can be hard in the center if not soaked.
Step 2
Prepare the sauce by mixing 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoon water, 1 tablespoon mirin, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 grated garlic, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, and lots of black pepper to taste. Mix until sugar has dissolved. OPTIONAL: scoop out a few tablespoons of sauce and put it to the side if you want to use as a garnish when the rice is finished cooking.
Step 3
Add the thinly sliced beef to the sauce you prepared in Step Let the beef marinate for a few minutes while you prepare the next steps.
Step 4
Wash 1 cup of rice in a strainer (or in the same bowl you used before) until water runs clear. Make sure your strain all the water to ensure that you add the right amount of water in the next step. The water should barely cover the surface of the rice. We don’t need to add too much water because the beef will provide some moisture to the rice and we don’t want soggy rice.
Step 5
Mince 2 cloves garlic and 1 tablespoon ginger. Dice 1/2 white onion.
Step 6
In the pot with rice, add garlic, ginger, onion, 1/2 cup water, marinated beef from step 3, 1/2 cup corn, and 1 tablespoon butter. Place pot in rice cooker and press the cook button. If you don't have a rice cooker, use the instructions below.
Step 7
When the rice is done, mix everything together. Garnish the rice with some sliced green onions and leftover sauce. Hope you enjoy!
