Notes
- You can use store-bought teriyaki sauce that you like. I prefer making it myself as many brands use alcohol, which is not allowed for me as a Muslim. So, I make my halal teriyaki sauce, which is easy.
- Choose any vegetables you like. White cabbage, romaine lettuce, gem lettuce, radishes, or carrots can be good choices. You can replace avocado with something else, too. I sometimes put edamame beans or sweetcorn kernels.
