Japanese Sukiyaki Recipe, My husband used to live in Japan for two years and learned how cook some of the yummiest Japanese food I’ve ever had. On New Year’s eve, we decided to have something really delicious and we knew just what to make. Sukiyaki literally means “Things that you like cooked” (at least that’s what my husband told me). So we cooked things that we like, okay, love. We got some tritip meat sliced really thin at Safeway, tofu, shiitake mushrooms, some noodles, etc.

Fuji Sukiyaki

I am so grateful that my husband can cook. Certain things I just ask him to cook or bake because I know they will taste better if he did. :) We used Korean japchae noodles and they were really good in Sukiyaki.

Japanese Sukiyaki recipe

We own a Sukiyaki pot so we used that but you could use a large skillet or pan to cook sukiyaki if you’d like.

Mmmm… I wish I could have a bite of this right now… I think this is going to be our new year’s eve tradition! :)

Sukiyaki Ingredients

1. 1 lb thin slices of beef (tritip or sirloin), cut into bite sizes
2. 1 firm tofu, sliced into 1 1/2x1/2 inch rectangles
3. 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
4. pinch of salt
5. 1 cup shiitake mushrooms, sliced
6. 1 small pack yam noodles or glassy noodles, cooked according to package instructions (about 2 cups cooked)
7. 2 green onions, chopped

Sauce:

1. 3/4 cup sugar
2. 1/2 cup mirin
3. 3/4 cup soy sauce
4. 1/2 cup dashi stock

Sukiyaki Directions

1. Heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the tofu slices and grill until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Set aside with other fresh ingredients.
2. To make sauce: Combine all sauce ingredients in a large pan (or sukiyaki pan) and bring it to boiling. Add the sliced meat, tofu, noodles, mushrooms and green onions and cook until the meat is cooked all the way.
3. If desired, dip meat or other ingredients in raw egg. (I skipped this part since I am not a fan of raw egg.)

Sukiyaki Japanese 

The traditional way to eat Sukiyaki is to dip the meat or other ingredients in raw egg before eating. However, since I am not a huge fan of that idea, I skipped it. The sauce was really good, sweet and delicious. :) It reminded me of Korean bulgogi.
