Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon ginger (peeled and finely chopped)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sake
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 scallions (finely chopped)
  • daikon (grated (optional))
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Instruction

  • In a large mixing bowl put the ground beef, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, sake, egg, and panko breadcrumbs. Mix well using your fingers and make one big ball.
  • Cut it into quarters – this way you’ll end up with 4 patties the same size.
  • In a large pan over high heat, add the patties and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, until cooked through.
  • Making the sauce
  • Heat up the beef stock and set aside.
  • Put the sugar and flour into a medium size pan.
  • Add soy sauce and use a whisk to mix and create a paste.
  • Slowly add the stock to the paste, whisking constantly to prevent clumping.
  • Turn the heat on and bring to a boil, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Serve the patties with the sauce, sprinkle some scallions and top with grated ginger.
