Miso Nikujaga - Beef & Potato Stew (One-Pot)
A savory, rustic twist on Japan's ultimate home-cooked comfort food.
Best Miso: Awase Miso
Ingredients:
250g thinly sliced beef (ribeye or brisket)
3 medium potatoes (cut into chunks)
1 carrot (cut into chunks)
1 onion (wedges)
400ml dashi stock
2.5 tbsp Awase miso
1 tbsp soy sauce
1.5 tbsp mirin
1 tbsp sugar
Method:
Sauté sliced beef and onions in a pot with a little oil until beef changes color
Add potatoes and carrots, then pour in the dashi, sugar, mirin, and soy sauce
Cover with a lid and simmer on medium-low for 15 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Turn off heat, dissolve the Awase miso into the broth, and let sit for 10 minutes before serving so the potatoes absorb the miso flavor.
