Real sukiyaki or not, it was delicious. The only changes I made were to use a small can of bamboo shoots and added a can of baby corn. I also used alittle more corn starch for a thicker sauce and served it over chow mein noodles. My wife loved it.

Lived in Japan for four years. While this is not "Sukiyaki" (food snob version). Japanese make a similar dish. It's quick, easy and it's very good. I'll still call it Sukiyaki.

Not authentic and didn't taste anything like the real version of Sukiyaki.

Whether or not this is real sukiyaki didn't really matter to me, I enjoyed this recipe regardless. The only thing I'll do differently next time is lessen the amount of bamboo shoots (personal preference) and use low sodium soy sauce.

While it tasted fine(skipped the MSG), this is in no way Sukiyaki. A simple search on google would have shown that.

I made this for my traditional Sunday dinner for my daughter and her boyfriend. We all loved it! What a great taste! The only thing that I did different was to omitt the MSG and green onions. This will definately be on my table again.

As another reader noticed, this is a beef stir-fry and not Sukiyaki. MSG? Chicken broth? Use dashi stock with soy and mirin instead, or better yet, buy some warishita (sukiyaki cooking sauce).

My husband loved this. I've made it a lot because it's easy and quick. Hamburger works fine if you don't have the sirloin.

Excellent! This recipe was great. I can't speak to its authenticity, but we loved it. I was quick and easy to prepare too! We made it with cubed chicken breast instead of the beef. The sauce really made this recipe. We may try it with a bit less suger next time, but it was good sweet too. I bought yakisoba noodles at the market, prepared them in a seperate pan and then added them at the end. I can't say enough about this recipe. It is definietly worth a try.

This is in no way an authentic Japanese recipe for Sukiyaki. It's more of a stir fry.

This was very good. Since I don't keep MSG on hand, I didn't put any in the recipe and certainly didn't miss it. Next time, I plan to cut down on the amount of sugar. Overall, excellent!
