Beef Rolled Mochi is a dish where Mochi rice cake is wrapped and rolled with thinly sliced beef, then cooked in a sweet and salty Sukiyaki-style sauce. This is an excellent way to repurpose extra Mochi left over from the New Year’s feast.
People in Japan are always looking for creative ways to use unused Mochi bought for the New Year. We’ve previously shared several arrangements, such as Mochi with Nori-roasted seaweed, with grated Daikon radish, and with sweet soybean powder. Here’s a heartier option with beef. This dish can serve as a snack or a light meal, and its flavor is reminiscent of Sukiyaki, a popular choice for many. If you find yourself with surplus Mochi and are unsure what to do, give Beef Rolled Mochi a try. It’s so delicious that you might be tempted to buy more Mochi just to make this dish!
