Method
- Cook rice and quinoa mix according to packet instructions and allow to cool. (approx. 30 minutes)
- Combine soy sauce, mirin, honey, sesame oil and lemon juice in a bowl. Pour half of the dressing over the beef strips and marinate for 5-10 minutes (or as long as you can). Set aside remaining dressing.
