What usually goes through your mind when your friends flash tempting food pictures at you? My best friend just celebrated her birthday at a fancy Teppanyaki restaurant, Benihana, in Newport Beach. After drooling over her mouthwatering food pictures, I decided to gather myself. I can do this! If I can’t break my wallet, at least I can work my magic! Recreate a restaurant dish without spending big bucks!
I wanted to make a fancy looking but easy dish, Cucumber Wrap with Beef Short Rib. Not only are these little bites tasty, but they’re also packed with nutritional benefits. The beef short ribs are an excellent source of protein, iron, and essential vitamins like B12, which support muscle growth and overall energy levels. The cucumbers add a hydrating element, low in calories and high in vitamins C and K, promoting healthy skin and bones.
This is one of the easiest teppanyaki recipes to make, just roll up the beef short rib with cucumber. When the kids saw the cute decorations, they both asked, “What are we celebrating?” I told them sometimes you don’t need a reason to celebrate. You can go through your days like flipping pages on a calendar, or you can fill your day with surprises and happiness.
We devoured all the wraps on the plate and good thing I made a whole bunch because they asked for more. My daughter was so happy after dinner when she took all the sparkly beads off the party toothpicks and made a new bracelet.
I hope you will love these cute little tasty bites and enjoy celebrating the special moments in your lives!

Did you make this recipe?
Place the cucumbers on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut off both ends of each cucumber. Completely peel the cucumbers with a vegetable peeler. Then, use the peeler to cut long, thin slices for the wraps. The cucumbers are now ready for wrapping with the thin sliced beef short ribs.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, place the thinly sliced beef short ribs directly in the skillet. Cook each slice for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until nicely seared and cooked through. Remove the cooked beef from the skillet and let it rest.
