I arranged my family's standard stir-fry into something that looks and tastes brilliant. As you sprinkle the shichimi spices at the end, if serving to children, you could take out a portion beforehand.You don't have to carve the carrot into blossoms, but it looks better if you do.The shichimi spice I use has a higher concentration of sansho pepper. You could add a sprinkling of sansho pepper in addition to the shichimi spice if you prefer. Recipe by moritoaruc

This is a dish I came up with using the ingredients I had on hand. It's a standard dish in our home. Adding water allows the flavors to absorb and makes it tasty.In Step 1, for those who are concerned about the acrid taste of the burdock root, soak them in water with a small amount of vinegar. In Step 4, when adding the ● ingredients, use chopsticks to sauté. Adjust the amount of soy sauce and sugar to taste. In Step 5, for those who prefer a crisp burdock root texture, reduce the amount of liquid, as well as the cooking time. Eighty grams of carrots is about 1/2 of a medium-sized carrot.

My mother taught me how to make this.Be careful not to overcook it--it's important to keep the lotus root crunchy.For those of you who'd prefer a stronger flavor, increase the seasoning to 1.5 the amount. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

Make burdock and konnyaku in to a rich tasting dish by stir frying.The point is to add sake, sugar and soy sauce in order, and mix them well. Finally pour the vinegar to complement. In my family, after serving for kids, I add the red chilli pepper for adults. Recipe by LaLaHappy1

I had an excess stock of burdock root and sweet potatoes.Precooking in the microwave makes this a quick-prep dish. (But be careful not to over cook, or the sweet potatoes will break apart!)Potato starch is used to thicken the sauce, so it coats the veggies nicely!For those who can take spicy, try cooking the red chili pepper with half of the seeds! It's delicious. Recipe by Norimakitamago

I had potatoes left over, so I made a dish that would match both Japanese and Western meals.Work through Step 1 while you are cooking other things to shorten the overall cooking time.It's also delicious with garlic powder, so try adding some if you'd like. Recipe by Yumirai

I made this when I wanted to use up carrots.＊Don't overcook the carrots.＊If you don't like spicy food, omit the chili peppers. But if you do, you could sprinkle shichimi chili pepper after frying the kinpira. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221
