Instructions
- Wash the potatoes well and remove any sprouts. Pat dry. Cut the thinly sliced beef into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces.
- Heat oil in a pot or deep pan over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook until the surfaces are lightly browned. Add the beef and cook until just starting to brown.
- Pour in the water, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
- Season with sugar, soy sauce, and sake, and continue cooking until the liquid is reduced by about half. Add the mirin and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated.
