How to Make Easy Stir-Fried Shabu Shabu Meat
Step 0: Marinate the Shabu Shabu Meat (Velveting Technique)
In a bowl, gently mix the thinly sliced lamb with the marinade ingredients.
Let it rest for 10–15 minutes, then lightly coat with oil.
Tip:
This velveting technique helps keep the meat tender, juicy, and free from strong odors, especially when using lamb or seafood.
Step 1: Stir-Fry the Vegetables
Heat a pan over medium-high heat with a small amount of oil.
Add onions, garlic, and optional vegetables. Stir-fry until fragrant and slightly softened.
Step 2: Add the Shabu Shabu Meat
Add the marinated rolled shabu shabu meat to the pan.
Because the slices are extremely thin, stir gently and carefully to prevent the meat from breaking apart.
Cook just until the meat changes color.
Step 3: Season
Pour the prepared seasoning sauce into the pan and toss lightly.
Cook for another 30–60 seconds to coat the meat and vegetables evenly.
Cumin adds a warm, earthy aroma that pairs especially well with lamb.
Step 4: Finish and Serve
Sprinkle sliced green onions on top and serve immediately with steamed rice.
