Make Your Own Teriyaki Meal

Used extensively in Asian cuisine, Teriyaki (derived from Japanese words tare — which means glaze from the sugar content and yaki — translated as cooking method of grilling or broiling) is both a sauce and cooking technique. The sauce is made with soy sauce, mirin (a type of rice wine) and sugar (or honey) and the cooking style involves dipping/grilling or broiling the meat or vegetables in the sauce.

Although, we have the newly launched Teriyaki Chicken Sausage Bowl to make your meals flavoursome, we are also giving out our exclusive Teriyaki Tofu and Pepper Rice Bowl recipe crafted by Chef Nabhojit. You can try this fuss-free, DIY recipe at home. Don’t forget to share your feedback with us.
