Ingredients

  • 500 g beef steak sliced into thin strips
  • 80 ml soy sauce
  • 60 ml mirin (sweet rice wine)
  • 60 ml sake (Japanese rice wine)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 cm piece of ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish (optional)
  • steamed rice to serve

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade:

  • In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved.

Slice the Beef:

  • Slice the beef steak thinly, about 0.5 cm thick. You can partially freeze the beef for easier slicing.

Marinate the Beef:

  • Place the sliced beef in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
  • Pour the marinade over the beef, making sure it's fully coated.
  • Seal the dish or bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, marinate for 2-3 hours or even overnight.

Cook the Beef:

  • Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the vegetable oil and let it heat up.
  • Remove the beef from the marinade, allowing any excess liquid to drip off.
  • Place the beef slices in the hot pan, making sure not to overcrowd it. You may need to cook the beef in batches.
  • Sear the beef for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until it's cooked to your desired level of doneness. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your beef slices.
  • Remove the cooked beef from the pan and set it aside on a plate.

Make the Teriyaki Sauce:

  • In the same pan, add the marinade you used for the beef.
  • Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Serve:

  • Arrange the cooked beef on a serving platter.
  • Pour the teriyaki sauce over the beef slices.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.

Serve with Rice:

  • Serve your beef teriyaki with steamed rice on the side.
    Enjoy your homemade beef teriyaki!
