Yakiniku Don
- 300 g thinly sliced beef or meat of your choice
- 2 portions cooked Japanese short-grain rice
- 2 tsp finely chopped green onions to garnish

- Measure out all of the sauce ingredients (2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp mirin, ½ tbsp ketchup, 1 tsp honey, 1 tsp garlic paste, 1 tsp ginger paste, ½ tbsp toasted sesame oil, ½ tbsp white sesame seeds, ½ tsp chili powder, ¼ tsp ground black pepper, ¼ tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp apple juice) into a small bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Heat a frying pan on high. Once hot, add a small drizzle of oil and 300 g thinly sliced beef. Sear on both sides (don't cook all the way through).
- Once seared, add the sauce and stir fry the meat for 1 minute 30 seconds. Mix continuously to prevent burning.
- Remove the pan from the heat and prepare 2 portions cooked Japanese short-grain rice. Arrange the meat on top of the rice and drizzle the sauce in the pan over the top.
- Sprinkle each bowl with chopped spring onion and place an egg yolk or boiled egg on top (optional).

Notes
- To add vegetables to this dish, use the same pan and fry them to your desired softness before adding the beef and sauce.
- This recipe was updated with an improved sauce in August 2024. You can find the original recipe on my youtube video here.
