Put 1/3 of the mixture into a small bowl for the meat and the remaining 2/3 into a slightly larger bowl for the vegetables. Slice the meat into thin slices and add to the small bowl, stir, and cover the bowl. Drain the sprouts, slice the remaining vegetables as finely as possible, and add them to the larger bowl with the sprouts. Stir and cover.
