Japanese Beef Sukiyaki Hot Pot

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Main Courses
Sukiyaki is the pinnacle of Japanese communal dining, cooked right in the center of the table. Named after 'suki' (plow), on which farmers used to grill meat. This Kanto-style recipe uses 'Warishita' sauce (soy-mirin-sugar): paper-thin beef and vegetables simmer in this sweet-salty broth. Dipping in raw egg not only cools the hot bite but creates a creamy coating.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Flat skillet or electric tabletop grill
  • Small bowls (for egg)

Allergen Information

⚠️ Soy
⚠️ Egg
⚠️ Wheat (in soy sauce)

Instructions

1 ✓

Freeze beef for 30 minutes, then slice paper-thin. Cube tofu, cut green onions into 2-inch pieces.

Tip: Thin slicing is key as meat cooks in seconds. If thick, it gets chewy.
2 ✓

Mix Warishita sauce: soy sauce, mirin, sugar, dashi.

Tip: This broth concentrates and flavors everything.
3 ✓

In the skillet with a little fat, sear half the meat, sprinkle with a little sugar (Kansai style), then pour sauce over.

Tip: Caramelizing sugar on the meat adds extra flavor.
4 ✓

Push meat aside, add mushrooms, tofu, onions, and noodles. Simmer in sauce until tender.

Tip: Tofu and mushrooms soak up the salty-sweet liquid like sponges.
5 ✓

Crack eggs into small bowls, beat lightly. Dip hot meat and vegetables into egg to eat.

Tip: Egg silken the intense soy flavor.

Recipe FAQ

What if I don't have mirin?
Use white wine with a little extra sugar, though the flavor won't be perfectly authentic.
I'm afraid to eat raw egg.
You can skip it, but it's part of the Sukiyaki experience. Use pasteurized eggs, or just dip in the sauce.
