About

Beef and vegetable stir-fry is a popular home-cooking dish in Japan for its simplicity and healthiness. Even with the oil and beef, it is considered healthy because of the amount and variety of vegetables. Try to use fresh vegetables if you have time and add the fresh fruit to the bento for even more nutrition.
