Recently, I am trying to incorporate iron-rich foods into my diet. This beef teriyaki is one of the simple beef dishes that I’ve made.
There is really no need to introduce teriyaki as this is probably one of the most well-known imports from Japanese cuisine. Everyone loves chicken teriyaki.
Previously, I shared chicken teriyaki recipe on Rasa Malaysia.
I cheated and pan-fried my beef on a skillet (traditionally, it should be grilled for a deeper and smokier flavor), and then lacquered the sweet and savory homemade yakitori sauce on top the beef before serving.
This beef teriyaki recipe not the most authentic way to make it, but it’s one that’s perfect for my busy schedules lately.
Try this easy beef teriyaki at home, and you will never need another takeout of this popular dish at home. Plus, you can make a big batch of the teriyaki sauce and keep it in the refrigerator, and you can have teriyaki as often as you want.
