Hayashi Rice

Hayashi Rice (Hashed Beef Rice) is essentially a beef stew served with rice. The stew is made using beef, tomatoes, onion, mushrooms in a thick demi-glace sauce containing red wine and tomato ketchup. I have seen other people add peas to the stew or carrots.

Using a rice cooker your rice should be ready at the same time as the stew.
