Yakitori (grilled meat skewers)

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

3 T treacle sugar
3⁄4 cup rice wine vinegar
3⁄4 cup soya sauce
1 × 10 cm piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
500 g beef fillet or salmon, cut into bite-sized pieces
Edamame beans, steamed, for serving (optional)

Method

Heat the sugar, rice wine vinegar, soya sauce and ginger in a saucepan, then simmer until thick.

Thread the meat or fish onto kebab skewers. Brush with the marinade and grill on a hot griddle pan, brushing with more marinade until cooked to your liking.

Serve with steamed edamame beans and wasabi salt.

Cook's note: Grilled meat, fish or veg on bamboo or metal skewers are a snack you’ll find cooking temptingly over charcoal fires on street corners and outside shrines in Tokyo. Here’s how to bring a taste of the streets to your kitchen.
