Once you have your layered stacks, cut them into equal pieces, approximately 2-3 inches in width. The goal is to create uniform bundles that will stand upright in the rice cooker.

Carefully arrange the cut cabbage and beef layers vertically into the rice cooker pot. Start from the outer edge of the pot and work your way inward, creating a circular, fanned pattern. Ensure the layers are packed snugly to prevent them from falling over.

Add the prepared enoki and shimeji mushrooms to the center of the layered cabbage and beef in the rice cooker pot.
