Super easy and hearty soup. Koreans traditionally have this on their birthdays, but I can have it every week!

Ingredients

• Wakame — 2 oz dried, yields about 3 cups hydrated
• Beef — 6-8 oz of any stew meat (boneless beef chuck steak works well)
• Minced garlic — 2 teaspoons
• Soy sauce — 1 tablespoon
• Sesame oil — 1 tablespoon
• Salt and pepper — to taste

Instructions

1. Soak wakame to rehydrate. Rinse and cut into bite size.
2. Cut beef into bite size and marinate with (half tablespoon) soy sauce, garlic and pepper.
3. Sauté and cook beef with sesame oil until meat is no longer red.
4. Add wakame to beef and continue to sauté for a few more minutes, adding another half tablespoon of soy sauce.
5. Add 10 cups of water and let boil on medium/low for 20-30 minutes. Broth should look slightly milky. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Optional: serve with scallion and rice. You can also add a few pieces of frozen oysters and drop an egg in to make it heartier.

Enjoy!
