Beef gyudon is one of the popular beef bowl dish from Japan. I thinly sliced rib eye steak and simmered it in a delicious sauce mix. I served the beef over a bowl of freshly steamed white rice, and topped it off with a hard boiled egg, green onions, and Japanese chili flakes. This dish is simple to make and good enough to feed 2-3 people with 1 lb of steak! This is considered one of Japan’s comfort “home” cooked meals. I hope you try this recipe out!

Ingredients (Serves 2 – 4 people depending on your appetite):

1 lb Rib Eye thinly sliced – separate the fat from meat and chop fat into cubes.

1/2 yellow or white onion thinly sliced

1/2 cup of Dashi (1/2 tsp of Hondashi powder mixed with water)

2 tbspn soy sauce

2 tbsn mirin

1 tbsn sake

1 tbsn sugar

Optional garnish: Green onions, boiled egg, and Togarashi flakes.

Directions:

1. Mix Dashi, soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, and ginger.
2. Add a splash of oil (about a tsp) in your pan and the steak fat. In low heat, render the fat. This will flavor the oil.
3. Once fat has been rendered, ditch the fat and save the oil.
4. Add your onions and saute until softened.
5. Add your beef in a single layer.
6. Once beef is half way cooked, add the sauce.
7. Simmer the beef until sauce has reduced by half.
8. To plate, place rice in a bowl, top with some of the sauce and meat. Garnish with green onions and a boiled egg (optional). Finish off with sprinkles of Togarashi (Japanese chili flakes).
9. Enjoy!
