Directions
Cut the onion in half and removing the tough center part. Slice the halves thinly. Heat some oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat, then toss in the onion. Cook and stir it until it just starts to brown, which should take about 30 seconds. Turn the heat down to medium-low and add water, soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, and sake. Let everything simmer together for about 3 minutes so the flavors meld. Next, add the beef to the pan, cover it, and cook until the meat is fully done—this usually takes around 3 to 5 minutes. Once everything is ready, spoon the beef and onions over bowls of rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, ginger, and strips of seaweed for a tasty finish.
Best Pairings For This Dish
Serve with a side of pickled ginger or a soft boiled egg for extra depth. A simple green salad or steamed vegetables can add freshness and balance to the meal.
Leftover Tips
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Reheat gently on the stove or microwave to keep the beef tender and avoid drying out the rice.
