This teppanyaki sauce is based on a recipe by Harumi Kurihara. In her book Easy Japanese Cooking, she shares her wonderful ‘Harumi’s Grilling Sauce’, which I fell in love with straight away. The fresh ingredients give it a wonderful aroma and a delicious flavour.

Tip

Teppanyaki is a gentle cooking method that not only offers excellent food of the highest quality but also allows for a convivial get-together. With the teppan, the Japanese grill, you can prepare various dishes, from individual ingredients to entire menus. Popular ingredients include vegetables, fish, seafood and meat.

Make your own teppanyaki sauce:

I’ve adapted the original recipe by using less soy sauce and (instead of grinding the sesame seeds) briefly purée the barbecue sauce at the end. A dash of chilli oil gives my barbecue sauce that final kick!

The barbecue sauce is also great as a dip or side sauce for other dishes! It keeps in the fridge for at least a week in airtight jars.

So, here are the ingredients you’ll need for your homemade Teppanyaki sauce:

Red wine
Shoyu (im Shop ansehen)
Honey
Sugar
Miso paste (im Shop ansehen)
Apple
Onions
Garlic cloves
Ginger (fresh)
La-Yu Sesame Oil with Chilli
Sesame (im Shop ansehen)

Tip

A non-alcoholic alternative to red wine is a combination of grape juice and a mild vinegar.

To prepare, roughly chop the apple, onion, garlic and ginger and set aside. Bring the red wine to a gentle simmer in a saucepan and stir in the soy sauce, honey, sugar and Miso. Add the chopped ingredients, sesame seeds and chilli oil and heat gently until the apples have softened. Then purée the mixture into a creamy sauce. Pour into jars or serve directly with the teppanyaki.

And now I hope you have fun and good luck making this delicious homemade teppanyaki sauce!

Prepare the ingredients for the homemade Teppanyaki barbecue sauce.

Step 2

To begin with, peel the apple, onion, garlic and ginger and roughly chop each into small pieces (as the sauce will be puréed at the end, the ingredients only need to be roughly chopped). For the garlic, first press it lightly with the back of a knife, then remove the skin and slice it thinly. Set everything aside until needed.
