Scrape off outer skin of gobo with the back of a knife; cut the root into 10 cm / 4 in. pieces then cut lengthwise into quarters. Soak in water for about 5 minutes.

Add simmering liquid ingredients and burdock to a pot; simmer until burdock softens, about 15-20 minutes. Set the pot aside to cool.

In a frying pan, heat vegetable oil. Add the beef rolls, rolled ends facing down, and sauté the rolls evenly over medium to high heat by rolling them in the frying pan. Add seasoning ingredients and roll to coat evenly.

Remove rolls from pan before beef is overcooked. When slightly cooled, cut into bite sizes and serve.

Note: Any dish in which simmered gobo is rolled up with beef, eel or other ingredients is called yawata-maki, referring to Yawata, a town near Kyoto known for its gobo.
