14 items

• 500 grams thinly sliced beef (such as ribeye or shabu-shabu cut)
• 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 1 medium carrot, julienned
• 200 grams broccoli florets
• 60 ml low-sodium soy sauce
• 40 ml mirin
• 30 ml sake
• 150 ml water
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water (to mix with cornstarch)
• 4 cups cooked white rice (Japanese short-grain preferred)

📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. Prepare all ingredients by thinly slicing the beef, onion, and carrot, and separating broccoli into bite-sized florets.

2. In a medium saucepan, combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, water, brown sugar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Heat over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

3. Add the sliced onion to the sauce and cook for 3-4 minutes or until slightly softened.

4. Add the thinly sliced beef to the sauce and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is tender and fully cooked through.

5. In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Gradually add the slurry to the simmering sauce while stirring to thicken it to your desired consistency. Turn off the heat once thickened.

6. In a skillet, lightly steam or sauté the carrot and broccoli florets until just tender but still crisp (about 3-4 minutes). Season lightly with a pinch of salt if desired.

7. To assemble the bowls, add 1 cup of cooked rice as the base for each serving. Top the rice with a generous portion of the beef and onion mixture, followed by the sautéed vegetables.

8. Serve hot and enjoy your Yoshinoya-style beef with vegetables rice bowl!
