Method

  1. Step 1

    Cut the beef into cubes. Thickness up to 3cm, up to 4cm or 5cm for length and width is ok, depending on meat used and preference.

  2. Step 2

    Chop the spring onions into 4-5cm pieces.

  3. Step 3

    To prepare the Teriyaki Sauce, combine Soy Sauce, Mirin, and Sake in a pan and bring to a boil. Reduce to about half, this should take about 5 mins or so. The consistency you’re aiming for will be like light syrup. Be careful not to overdo it as the mixture will burn and result in a bitter mess if overdone.

  4. Step 4

    Place beef and spring onions on bamboo skewers.

  5. Step 5

    Grill the skewers over charcoal or gas, a hotplate is fine as well. For the most authentic experience use Binchotan (Japanese charcoal), which has long-lasting, high heat output.

  6. Step 6

    Turn several times while cooking to ensure even cooking. Baste grilled side with Teriyaki sauce. Repeat several times as you turn skewer over until cooked to taste.
