You’ll probably have to go to Asian marts to get some ultra thinly sliced beef, [Shirataki noodles](http://www.asianfoodgrocer.com/product/orchids-white-shirataki-noodles?utm_source=google&utm_medium=base) and [napa cabbage](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napa_cabbage).

1. Ideally into an electric skillet on the center of table, put in bite size sliced Asian cabbage, onion, green onion, Shirataki noodles, (mushroom optional) and sliced beef as you turn the heat on.
2. Make broth with water, sugar, black pepper and soy sauce to taste (not too salty or sweet). Mix well and pour on top of all the ingredients in the skillet to somewhat cover the ingredients (remember the volume of broth will increase as the veges cook and produce liquid). Cover and heat until meat is cooked and veges turn transparent.
3. Break a raw egg into a small bowl and beat a bit. Pour the hot broth, veges and meat into the bowl and mix with the raw egg in the bottom of the bowl. Eat with white steamed rice. (I love Kimchi with sukiyaki and rice.)
4. Put more sliced beef into the hot broth in the skillet as you eat if you want (although this is more of [shabu-shabu](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/shabu-shabu) thing it works with sukiyaki too).
5. Adjust the heat so not all the liquid from the broth boil off.

You can skip shirataki noodles if you can’t get them. It’s important for me to have shirataki noodles though but definitely not necessary. You can use [mirin](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirin) sauce to make more proper [Sukiyaki](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukiyaki) but I don’t normally use it nor do I ever put in any tofu. And you can definitely make this on a stove top.

It is pretty much a fail safe dish so you can experiment with ingredients ( [Beef Sukiyaki on the Grill Recipe](http://japanesefood.about.com/od/beef/r/beefsukiyaki.htm) ). It makes a quick hot tasty Japanese meal.
