Ingredients

  • 6cups good quality beef stock or broth (you may need 1 to 2 additional cups of stock/ broth to add during serving)
  • 8 to 10slices peeled, fresh ginger, each about the size of a quarter
  • 6whole peppercorns
  • 4garlic cloves, peeled and halved
  • 3scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2tablespoons soy sauce, reduced sodium
  • 2tablespoons mirin (Japanese rice wine)
  • 1pound beef or pork tenderloin, thinly sliced
  • 8ounces small white mushrooms, cleaned
  • 8ounces extra-firm tofu, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1small zucchini, cut into ½-inch rounds or half-moons
  • ½pound edible pod or snow peas, trimmed steamed
  • white or brown rice

Preparation

  1. 1. Put the beef stock/broth, ginger, peppercorns, garlic, scallions, soy sauce and mirin in the fondue pot. Set to Setting 6 to bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to Setting 3.5 to bring to a simmer. Allow to simmer for about 25 to30 minutes.
  2. 2. To serve, skewer pieces of beef or pork onto forks and cook until firm and cooked through in the simmering broth, about 3 to 5 minutes. Skewer vegetables and tofu and cook to taste. The vegetables and broth pair very well with a bowl of rice, or with the suggested dipping sauces below. If liquid cooks off too much, add additional stock/broth and allow to simmer for a few minutes before cooking foods.
