*: fat content for ground beef is very likely lower, since fat is drained and rinsed after cooking. It should be around 8g.

Cooking instruction
1. Brown ground beef in pan, drain the fat and put aside. If you need it to be leaner, wash the ground beef with hot water.
2. Slice tofu into small pieces. Spray frying pan and stir-fry tofu until slightly brown. Add beef, and put aside. 3. Spray frying pan and stir-fry mix of sambal oelek and soy bean until fragrant and add all other seasonings. Return beef and tofu and add chili peppers. Stir well until liquid is almost absorbed.
4. Boil udon, put beef mixture on top of it and garnish with green onion.

1st attempt:

I copied down the wrong amount of seasonings, instead of 1 tablespoon, I thought it was 1 teaspoon. The beef is a little dry and are not spicy enough obviously. Next time, I'm going to follow the recipe more closely.
