Where to find ingredients

Preparation method
- Cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Prepare the vegetables: steam the carrot, bell pepper, onion, and Japanese broccoli in a covered pan with 1/2 cup water and the dissolved vegetable bouillon cube. Cook until tender yet crisp.
- Season the beef strips with salt to taste.
- In a large pan or wok, heat a little vegetable oil if needed and sear the beef strips until browned.
- Add the browned beef to the pan with the cooked vegetables.
- Prepare the sauce: in a separate saucepan, combine the ready-made yakissoba sauce, soy sauce, sunflower oil, and 500 ml of water.
- Dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of cold water and add it to the sauce pan along with the beef bouillon cube.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
- Pour the thickened sauce over the pan with the meat and vegetables. Stir well and let it simmer for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the sliced mushrooms if desired.
- Serve the meat and vegetable mixture over the cooked spaghetti.
