Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons sake
• 2 tablespoons mirin
• 1 bunch scallions, halved lengthwise and crosswise
• 2 tablespoons prepared dashi stock
• 0.5 pound flank steak, very thinly sliced into 8 pieces

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place 2 or 3 scallion pieces across a slice of beef and roll up tightly.

Step 2

Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add beef rolls, seam-side down, and cook for 1 minute. Roll and cook to brown on all sides, about 5 minutes more.

Step 3

Add soy sauce, sugar, sake, and dashi to the skillet and cook, rolling beef to coat, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer beef to a plate and increase heat to reduce liquid, 3 to 5 minutes. Add mirin and return beef rolls to the skillet, rolling until well coated and heated through. Slice rolls in half to serve.
