Economical Sukiyaki

Are there times when you want to eat sukiyaki, but can't due to economical/health reasons, or there aren't enough mouths to feed? Eat this sukiyaki during those times. Maitake mushrooms are good for the immune system, and konnyaku is low in calories and high in dietary fiber!
Make sure to thoroughly evaporate the water from the konnyaku noodles and tofu when frying them. It tastes great because it isn't watery. For those of you who don't add sugar, it might be a good idea to replace the sake with mirin. It tastes like sukiyaki . You can eat a fairly large portion without affecting your diet.

An Economical Dish: Pork, Bean Sprouts, and Tofu Sukiyaki-don Rice Bowl An Economical Dish: Pork, Bean Sprouts, and Tofu Sukiyaki-don Rice Bowl
You might question using bean sprouts with sukiyaki flavors, but they really absorb those flavors well and become really tasty. This is a favorite in our family.It's kind to your wallet too, so it's your friend when your household budget is tight.It's a very easy and quick recipe. The tofu absorbs the flavors faster if you crumble it up with your hands, and you don't have to cut it either so I recommend it.The flavoring is rather sweet, so please adjust to your taste.

Sukiyaki Rice Bowl Sukiyaki Rice Bowl
For lunch! Simple and delicious sukiyaki rice bowl. Make it with cheap cuts of meat.Add the meat once the other ingredients are about 60% cooked through, so that it won't be overcooked. The Japanese leek will also get mushy if overcooked, so add it in last and just let it simmer briefly. The wheat gluten and shirataki noodles will soak up the sauce.

Easy and Simple Chicken Sukiyaki Easy and Simple Chicken Sukiyaki
I made our family version of chicken sukiyaki at my husband's request.Put vegetables with high water content in first to increase the sukiyaki sauce by the amount of water that comes out from them.I didn't use this time, but burdock root and daikon radish go really well with this dish! It's also tasty if you use duck instead of chicken. We finish off sukiyaki with udon noodles, but it will also be delicious if you make rice porridge with cooked rice and some eggs.

Sukiyaki-Style Stir-Fried Beef Sukiyaki-Style Stir-Fried Beef
I had about 200 g of sukiyaki beef, but it was too little to go through the effort of making sukiyaki, so I made a variation of it in a frying pan. It's an easy way to prepare a sukiyaki-like meal.Adding the beef in two processes helps to keep it from getting too tough. You can use leek stalks in place of onions. Green onions can be substituted for mizuna greens. Recipe by Hanahanako. cookpad.japan
