My mother’s unique cake recipe is a favorite among our family and friends. This cake is scrumptious and moist, with a bit of green tea taste. Add more matcha green tea powder as desired to suit your taste.

Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups water
- 2 cups uncooked brown rice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 ½ pounds boneless round steak, sliced into 1/2-inch strips
- 1 small onion, diced
- ½ cup water
- ⅓ cup soy sauce
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 4 green onions, chopped
Instructions
- Combine 2 1/2 cups water and brown rice in a 4-quart pressure cooker. Close cooker securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer’s instructions. Heat until steam escapes in a steady flow and makes a whistling sound. Adjust temperature to a simmer. Cook until rice is tender, about 22 minutes. Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer’s instructions, 5 to 10 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
- At the same time, turn on a 6-quart multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), add oil, and select Saute function. Add steak and onion to hot oil; saute until browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together 1/2 cup water, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl; add to browned steak. Close and lock the lid and cancel Saute function. Select high pressure according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 11 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
- Stir in honey. Combine 3 tablespoons water and cornstarch in a small bowl; add to the Instant Pot®. Add broccoli.
- Select Saute function and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and broccoli is cooked, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with rice and garnish with green onions.
- If you want your broccoli to be more tender, close the lid and reseal the pressure valve. Let sit for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.

Reviews
I think this turned out pretty well. My meat turned out just a little dry. I think I will make it again though. I ended up adding more soy sauce to taste, and I would double the ginger next time. I sprinkled ours with red pepper flakes. Overall, a nice meal. Thanks for the recipe!
