Tips

• For a lighter version, use vegetable broth and skip the beef, or substitute tofu for a plant-based option.
• To enhance the umami, add a splash of soy sauce or a teaspoon of mushroom powder after cooking.
• If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
