Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved and set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and add the sesame oil.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until fully browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften.
Add the shiitake mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes until they are tender.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet and pour in the soy sauce mixture. Stir well to coat the ingredients evenly.
