green bean and ground beef okazu (rice topping)

 

This is such a super-easy dinner! I got the recipe here on Allrecipes, but I use less sugar and I add onions. Here's my take. 

You'll need:

• 1 pound (450 g) ground beef
• 1 pound (450 g) frozen organic green beans, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 cup water
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1/8 cup of sugar
• 1/4 cup soy sauce

Do this: 

Saute the onion in a little bit of oil till almost soft, then add in the ground beef and cook till done. Add in all the rest of the ingredients and simmer for a little while. I serve this over rice with a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. 

One of the boys just told me that he loves this except for the green beans!
