Instructions

Step 1 Preheat oven to 200°C. Place meat in freezer (to help with slicing). Meanwhile, place kumara in an ovenproof dish, drizzle with sesame oil then spray with oil. Toss lightly. Cook for 40 minutes or until tender.
Step 2 Meanwhile, mix stock, soy sauce, mirin and sugar in a deep frying pan. Bring to the boil, reduce heat then add onion. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 3 Slice beef as thinly as possible and add to pan. Cook for a few minutes until meat is opaque. Remove and sprinkle with pickled ginger, spring onions and chilli (if using).
Step 4 Add silver beet to stock and cook for 2 minutes until just wilted. Serve beef over kumara and silver beet. Spoon over reserved liquid. Serve immediately.
