Beef teriyaki is always a big hit with my family. We just can’t get enough of thosedelicious and perfectly cooked slices of beefwith that sweet and sticky teriyaki sauce. We are also a big fan of noodles; udon noodles, in particular. This beef teriyaki udon noodle dish combines these two favorites to make one delicious dish. The best part is that it’s so easy to make!
In this beef teriyaki udon dish, the slices of beef are stir-fried after first being marinated for 30 minutes. Then, carrots and mushrooms are added along with the udon noodles. Then, the teriyaki sauce is poured over. The result is a very satisfying dish that we can’t get enough of. Enjoy!

This was DELICIOUS!!!! I learned a technique also from Chinese You Tube channel how to make beef more tender. This is great for a family meal too. Will make again.

I made this receipt but for whatever reason, the noodles were a tad mushy. I followed the instructions, and sauteed them straight from the package. Any suggestions?

My suggestion is to cook the udon noodles in boiling water until al dente. Drain the noodles and later on stir it in with the meat and vegetables.

Hi Eleanor, I used cooking sake for this recipe. You can buy it at any Japanese or Asian grocery store.
I couldn’t find sake at the asian store. Can I use mirin instead? Thanks

You can use dry sherry or Chinese rice wine in place of sake.

Is it okay to use ready made teriyaki sauce (in a bottle) instead of making it this way?

Hi Maria, Yes, you can use store bought teriyaki sauce for this recipe.

Hi! I really want to make this recipe but don’t have & can’t get any sake! Would this work without or can you suggest an alternative?
Thank you!

Hi Liza, I made this tonight and it was delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, but it was a little too sweet for me. What would I need to adjust in the recipe, so it’s not as sweet? Thanks!

Hi Brian, You may reduce the amount of brown sugar in the sauce if you found this dish too sweet. You may use 2 tablespoons of sugar instead of 1/4 cup. Hope this helps!

Thank you Liza! I thought maybe I bought the wrong sake ha ha! I’ll be making it again soon and will use less brown sugar.

Pulmuone Teriyaki Stir-fry Udon is available at Costco. Add 1 tbsp of oil, 4 tbsp of water, vegetable topping and Udon Noodles into a sauce pan. Then turn on the heat and stir fry 1-2 minutes over hight heat 2. Add Teriyaki Seasoning and stir fry for another minute over low heat.
If cooking semi-dried (slightly flexible, shelf stable) udon, boil for 6-7 minutes before testing for tenderness; if cooking dried (brittle, shelf stable) udon, boil for 9-10 minutes. Test by plucking a noodle from the pot, plunging it in cold water, then biting.
Udon is made with flour and some salt. It is then kneaded and shaped like noodles. Soba, on the other hand, is made from powdered buckwheat, though in some areas, flour is also used. It is also kneaded and shaped like noodles.
Frozen udon noodles only need a minute or two to cook. Follow the package and add the noodles to a large pot of boiling water. Gently shake the clump to loosen the noodles. Once it's done, drain well.
Once the noodles are done, turn off the heat and carefully drain the water using a colander or strainer. Rinse the noodles under cold running water to stop the cooking process and remove any excess starch. This step is important, as it will prevent the noodles from becoming gummy or sticky.
Nutrition notes: Usually found in brothy soups, these Asian noodles are made from refined white flour (not durum wheat), though there are whole-wheat versions. They have less fiber and protein than plain pasta and, unless they're enriched, fewer nutrients.
What's the healthiest? While both dishes brim with flavor, Udon could be considered the healthier of the two noodle type dishes as it tends to have cleaner, simpler toppings and has lower sodium as it doesn't use kansui (the alkaline solution that gives ramen its unique flavor).
Udon calories from wheat flour are low in fat and cholesterol, but they don't have high levels of healthy nutrients like calcium, vitamin C or vitamin A. You'll also want to be careful what type of noodles you're buying and check the nutrition labels.
“Teriyaki” refers to a Japanese cooking style that uses teriyaki sauce as a marinade or glaze for grilled or broiled meats – combining the Japanese words teri, meaning "gloss," and yaki, meaning "grill or fry." The sauce itself comprises soy sauce, sugar, and mirin or sake–because of its high sugar content, it melts ...
Delicately nutty, it adds a special something to many dishes. Our Kikkoman Teriyaki Sauce with Sesame delivers precisely this mild but unmistakable taste. As part of the Kikkoman Teriyaki family, this sauce is perfect for marinating meat, fish or vegetables.
Description: Soft udon noodles that are wok-ready with no pre cooking required. For Soup Prep: Put Noodle into 300cc boiling water, add seasoning & stir well to cook for 3 minutes. Meat, mushrooms or vegetables can be cooked together.
Bring a big pot of water to a rolling boil (DO NOT add salt to the water; the noodles are already seasoned and will release some salt during cooking). Loosen up the noodles, leaving the excess starch behind, and add the noodles to the pot.
First fill a saucepan with water and set it to a boil. Open the udon noodle package and add it to the boiling water. Make sure to separate the noodles from each other because they tend to stick to each other in clumps. Boil for about 3 minutes.
