Ingredients

Instructions

1. Take the beef out of the fridge about 10 minutes before cooking. If slicing it yourself, cut across the grain.
2. Mix the soy sauce, mirin, ketchup, honey, garlic, ginger, oyster sauce, cayenne, lemon juice and apple juice in a small bowl until well blended.
3. Pat the beef dry with paper towels just before searing.
4. Heat a frying pan over high heat with a little oil. Spread the beef in a single layer without overlapping, separating any clumps. If the pan is small, cook in 2 batches.
5. When one side is browned, flip the slices and add the sauce at once.
6. Stir constantly over high heat for 45 seconds to 1 minute, until the sauce reduces and clings to the beef with no thin watery sauce left. Turn off the heat.
7. Divide the cooked rice between 2 bowls. Add shredded cabbage, then the beef, and spoon the remaining pan sauce over it.
8. Drizzle with the sesame oil, then sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and black pepper.
9. Scatter the chopped green onions over the top. If desired, add one egg yolk per bowl and serve hot.
