Tips:

To elevate the flavors in your Spicy Enoki Mushroom Beef, consider marinating the sliced beef in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, and a pinch of black pepper for about 15-30 minutes before cooking. This will enhance the tenderness and add an extra layer of savory depth to your dish. Additionally, feel free to customize the spice level by adding chili flakes or fresh chili peppers based on your preference!
