Method

5 steps
  1. 1Simmer soy, mirin, sugar and water to make the warishita sauce.
  2. 2Heat a wide shallow pan at the table and grease it. Sear a few slices of beef with a little sugar and a splash of sauce.
  3. 3Arrange cabbage, tofu, mushrooms, spring onion and noodles in sections and pour in sauce to come halfway.
  4. 4Simmer and add beef as you eat, cooking slices just until no pink remains.
  5. 5Dip each bite in beaten raw egg if using very fresh, safe eggs, or crack eggs into the pan to poach.
Serve it like this

Bring the shallow pan to the table on a portable stove with platters of raw ingredients around it, a small bowl of egg for each person and rice on the side.
