Sukiyaki (Sweet Soy Beef and Vegetable Hot Pot)

Recipe By :Yakitori House,Epcot
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Foreign Meat


Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound Beef (paper thin slice)
1 large Onion
1 Bunch Green Onion
1/2 pound Carrot
2 Packs Japanese Noodle
Sukiyaki Sauce:
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
1/4 Cup Mirin (Sweet cooking Sake)
1 Cup Dashi (Fish Stock)
Dashi:
1 Cup Water
1 square Konbu (Sea Weed) -- (1 inch)
1/2 Cup Bonito Flakes

How to make dashi:
Place in a saucepan with konbu and water and soak for 2 hours.
Bring saucepan to a rapid simmer over high heat.
Remove saucepan from heat, adding bonito flakes.
Let stand for 3 minutes, strain through into a bowl.

Method of Preparation
Cut all ingredients into bite-sized pieces. Arrange all ingredients on a large plate and place the plate at the table.
Mix Sukiyaki Sauce ingredients.
Heat sukiyaki pot at table (electric fry pan or skillet is OK) and heat 1 tablespoon oil in pot.
Add beef slices and sear on both sides, then pour sukiyaki sauce in the pan.
Add other ingredients when the sauce starts to boil. Simmer until all ingredients are softened.

Cooks Note: Sukiyaki is a very popular one-pot meal in Japan. The main ingredient is thin sliced beef, and it is simmered in a skillet or pan in the sukiyaki sauce with many vegetables and other ingredients. The quality of beef used in Sukiyaki is very important. You might want to ask a butcher to slice the tender part of the beef into very thin slices. The best beef for sukiyaki is called "shimofuri" beef in Japan. Shimofuri beef has lots of fat, but it's very tender and is also very expensive. Sukiyaki is usually cooked at the table, and it's common to eat with others from the same pan.
