Sukiyaki

3 TBS cooking oil
2 pounds sirloin steak
8 oz shirtaki (transparent Japanese noodles)
1/2 cup celery (sliced diagonally)
1 cup bamboo shoots
2 cups thinly sliced mushrooms
6 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup Chinese cabbage (or spinach)
1/2 cup tofu cut into small cu

A Regular Guys Recipe

1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup Mirin or dry sherry
3 TBS sugar
2 eggs (well beaten)

Slice steak very thin.  (This is easiest if you first freeze the steak for about half an hour --but allow the steak to thaw out after slicing before you begin cooking.)

Combine chicken broth, soy sauce, mirin and sugar in a bowl.

Arrange all of the noodles, tofu, celery, chinese cabbage, mushrooms, bamboo shoots and scallions on a platter.  Put the beaten eggs in a bowl.

The remaining steps can be done in front of your guests at the table if you have an electric wok.

Heat the oil in the wok.  You should cook one person's portion at a time.  Put a few pieces of steak, noodles and vegetables into the wok.  Pour some of the chicken/soy/wine mixture over it and stir fry until the beef is cooked and the vegetables are tender.   Remove the food from the wok and dip it in the raw beaten egg (the egg will cool the food just a bit and the hot food will cook the egg.)  Transfer the food to the person's plate and repeat the process for each guest.

Served with steamed rice.
