Sukiyaki-Style Konnyaku Noodles
One skillet of beef, tofu and konjac noodles simmered in soy and mirin, with a raw egg to dip into.
Ingredients
- 200 g Konjac noodles (shirataki)
- 130 g Beef chuck
- 1 tbsp Japanese soy sauce (koikuchi shoyu)
- 2 tsp Mirin
- 80 g Firm tofu (optional)
- 40 g Shimeji mushrooms (optional)
- ½ Japanese leek (negi) (optional)
- 1 Egg (optional)
- 2 tsp Neutral oil (optional)
Method
- Slice the beef as thin as the knife will let you, cut the negi into long diagonals, pull the shimeji into clumps and block the tofu.
- Drain and rinse the konjac noodles, then dry-fry them in a bare pan until the last water hisses off and they whistle against the base.
- Wipe the oil round a hot skillet and lay the beef out flat, turning it the moment the underside greys and the fat starts to run.
- Pour in the soy and mirin, let them boil up around the beef, then bed the tofu, negi and shimeji into the corners of the pan.
- Slide the dried konjac noodles into the liquid at the front of the pan and simmer everything gently until the negi slumps and the tofu is hot through.
- Break the egg into a cold bowl and beat it loose. Eat straight from the skillet, dropping each forkful through the raw egg on the way.
