Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • thinly sliced beef 200g
  • ripe tomatoes 2
  • onion 1/2
  • green onion 1/2 stalk
  • basil leaves as needed
  • eggs 2
  • Kikkoman soy sauce 540g
  • tamari soy sauce 90g
  • mirin 360g
  • cheongju 180g
  • sugar 150g
  • water 360g

Recipe 🍳

  1. Score a shallow cross on the bottom of the tomatoes opposite the stem. Blanch in boiling water, then cool in cold water. Peel and cut into 5 pieces.
  2. Cut the onion into thick slices for texture, and slice the green onion diagonally.
  3. Combine soy sauce, mirin, cheongju, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil briefly to make a special sukiyaki sauce.
  4. In a pot, layer the sliced onion and green onion on the bottom. Arrange the blanched tomatoes and beef on top, then evenly scatter basil leaves over.
  5. Pour the prepared sukiyaki sauce over just enough to cover partially. Simmer until the meat is cooked and the tomatoes are softened.
  6. Beat the eggs well, then dip the meat and tomatoes generously into the egg mixture to enjoy smoothly.
  1. Blanch the tomatoes briefly, peel, and cut into large chunks.
  2. Layer onion and green onion in a pot, then arrange tomatoes, beef, and basil leaves attractively on top.
  3. Pour a sweet-salty soy-based sauce over and bring to a boil. Dip in beaten egg to eat.

Cooking tips 💡

  • When blanching tomatoes, holding the knife with a short grip prevents cutting too deep and damaging the flesh.
  • Basil leaves are a game-changer for this tomato sukiyaki, so be sure to add them for that exotic flavor.
  • After finishing all the meat and vegetables, mash up the remaining tomato sauce, add ketchup, cheese, and pasta, and stir-fry for a wonderful tomato pasta finish.
