Tips

  • You may change the vegetables.
  • You can use other type of sliced beef available.
  • If you're using larger types of mushrooms, simply julienne them before using.
  • If the Udon noodles do not separate, microwave them for another 1-2 min to soften them.
  • You can just make beef & vegetable Udon without making steamed beef&vegetables.
