Japanese Katsudon
Crispy tonkatsu simmered with sweet onions and a savory dashi-soy sauce, topped with soft-set egg and served over fluffy rice.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 large onion
- 4 tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlets)
- 300 ml vegetable broth
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp mirin
- 2 tsp sugar
- 4 eggs
- 400 g sushi rice
- 2 tbsp chives (optional)
Steps
- Cook sushi rice according to package directions.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and fry until golden brown and softened.
- Place the tonkatsu cutlets in the center of the pan with the onions.
- In a small bowl, combine vegetable broth, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar. Pour three-quarters of this mixture around the tonkatsu.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and the tonkatsu to reheat.
- Pour the beaten eggs evenly around the tonkatsu. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg is set but still slightly runny.
- Divide the cooked rice among four bowls. Top each with a tonkatsu cutlet, egg, and onion mixture.
- Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately, drizzling with extra soy sauce if desired.
