Miso yaki dish

Serves: 4

Cooking Time: 20 mins plus extra to marinate

Ingredients

20ml (4 tsp) mirin
20ml (4 tsp) castor sugar
20ml (4 tsp) soy sauce
200g miso paste
2 garlic cloves, grated
800g beef rib-eye or pork belly, sliced about 5mm thick
green beans, boiled, to garnish

Instructions

Heat the grill to high or light the braai.

Heat the mirin and castor sugar in a small saucepan. Stir to allow the alcohol to evaporate and the sugar to dissolve, about 10 seconds. Set aside to cool.

Combine the soy sauce, miso paste and garlic in a bowl. Add the cooled mirin mixture and mix well.

Place the beef or pork in this mixture and leave to marinate for 30 minutes – 1 hour.

Lightly wipe off any excess miso mixture but don’t rinse it off. Grill or braai the meat and serve with green beans and the pepper stir-fry.
