Teriyaki Beef- Meat on the Menu

[Merlin]

This is an absolutely yummy recipe but you have to watch how the meat is cooking. I had some already sliced up beef strips which were probably too thin and some wrapped around the base of the blades and some of the meat on top wasn't cooked through. After stirring everything and adding another 2 minutes to cooking time it was fine and the entire family ate it up on no time with zero leftovers.

Would someone please be able to pm me this recipe it sounds great? I just can't afford another cook book at the moment with Christmas so close.

[Cldy]

Can I kindly ask for some nice person to please pm me the recipe?

I've asked my consultant for details of the book - cost, availability but it's been 3 weeks and still no news from the consultant. I don't think it's going to be arriving anytime soon. I do plan to get the book though but hoping to be able to test out some recipes as I've got some free time coming up soon.

Thanks in advance!

Will do.

I finally made this tonight (using chicken steaks cut into 3cm cubes) and adding 1/2 pkt stir fry vegies which I cooked in the varoma dish whilst the bowl was doing it's thing.  Only one complaint, boy was it hot.  I used one of those large red chillies so the heat shouldn't have been as intense as one of those small ones (I did remove the seeds and it wasn't a huge one, about 6cm long).  I also added a splash of boiling water after the 5 minutes cooking time but the chicken wasn't cooked so did it for another 5 minutes.   It was really nice but just a tad too hot for us.  Will use a small amount of sambal oelek next time instead of a fresh chilli..  Thanks Maddy for the idea of using those frozen vegies, it certainly stretches the meal. No one else commented on the heat of the dish so I was very surprised how it turned out.  Am I a whimp or what

I wimped out and didn't use chillies as the kids don't  like spicy food. I am in no doubt that the recipe works really well without chillies!!!

[judydawn]

I might do that myself then Merlin, thanks.

No Judy.....I'm the same 
I didn't use the fresh chilli either, but used 1 tsp chilli flakes, and the heat was just perfect.
I also used 700g chicken thigh cut into thin strips, and that was cooked for 12 minutes.
I also doubled the mirin, soy, sugar and cornflour quantities.



Adding in the stir fry veggies did help pad it out, and next time I think I will cook more soba noodles.......it just didn't make the distance for Hubby's appetite and the kids & I.

If someone already has this typed up could they pm it to me too please!! Have been looking for something like this but Santa just can't bring me anymore cookbooks right now

[judydawn]

On it's way Jenni.

[JenniCB]

Thanks so much Judy. Really appreciate it!! Hope you have a really lovely Christmas.

Would you have to use the Mirin for this?  Forgot to buy it and fancy making it.  Will it ruin the recipe?

[Meagan]

Mirin is like a sweet rice wine type thing you could possibly put white wine or just water??? Maybe?

I'd use sherry if you have it medusa.
