Teriyaki Beef and Avocado Rice Stack

Teriyaki Beef and Avocado Rice Stack:

Teriyaki Beef and Avocado Rice Stack

Ingredients:

• 1 cup cooked jasmine or sushi rice (warm)

• 200g (7 oz) thinly sliced beef (like sirloin or ribeye)

• 1 ripe avocado, sliced

• 3 tbsp teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)

• 1 tsp sesame oil

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• 1 tsp grated ginger

• 1 garlic clove, minced

• 1 green onion, finely sliced (for garnish)

• Toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)

• Optional: pickled ginger or sliced cucumber for freshness

Instructions:

1. Marinate and cook the beef:

   • In a bowl, mix the beef slices with teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and garlic. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

   • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and quickly stir-fry the beef until cooked but still tender (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside.

2. Prepare the rice stack:

   • Using a ring mold or small bowl, layer the rice first into the mold, pressing down gently to compact.

   • Add a layer of the cooked teriyaki beef.

   • Next, add a layer of avocado slices.

   • Repeat the layers if you want a taller stack, or just keep it simple with one layer each.

3. Garnish and serve:

   • Carefully remove the mold.

   • Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

   • Add optional pickled ginger or cucumber on the side for a refreshing crunch.
