Beef sukiyaki is a comforting Japanese meal that’s quick and easy to make, ready in under 30 minutes. This is a hotpot-type dish made with thinly sliced beef, tofu, mushrooms, vegetables, and noodles that are gently simmered in a savory, sweet broth.
2eggs, beaten (set aside in a bowl)Optional, for dipping
Instructions
Make the sukiyaki (Warishita) sauce. Mix the soy sauce, mirin, water, dashi powder, and sugar in a bowl until the sugar dissolves completely. Set aside while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
Use a colander to drain the water from the shirataki noodles and rinse thoroughly with water. Drain and set aside.
Set all prepped ingredients in a large serving platter.
In a large stock pot layer in the ingredients. Cook in batches as needed. Add some napa cabbage, shirataki noodles, layer in the mushrooms, tofu pieces, carrots, and top it with the beef slices and green onions. Add the warishita broth. Cover with a lid and bring it to a simmer on medium heat. Lower the heat to medium heat, allow the ingredients to cook through, about 5-8 minutes.
The meat is added to the top so it will not overcook. Once the ingredients are cooked, simply stir the meat into the broth for it to fully cook.
Place the pot in the center of the table and share family style! Serve with white rice or udon noodles. Dip each bite in beaten raw egg (optional).
Continue cooking the remaining ingredients in the same pot. If broth runs low, add some water with a bit of dashi powder to taste.
Notes
*Nutritional facts provided are estimates and may not be entirely accurate.
Share it family-style. Place the pot in the center of the table with a portable butane gas burner or electric induction stove, so everyone can cook and help themselves throughout the meal.
Keep adding ingredients as you eat. As space opens up in the pot, add more beef, vegetables, tofu, or noodles to keep the meal going and enjoy freshly cooked bites throughout the meal.
