Gyudon (Japanese Beef & Rice Bowl)
Ingredients
1 tbsp cooking oil
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
350 g thinly sliced beef
1 tsp sugar
1 tbsp mirin
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1/2 cup dashi stock (125ml) 125 ml + 1/2 tsp dashi stock powder
Cooked rice
Toppings
1/2 stalk chopped spring onion
2 Egg
1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
INSTRUCTIONS
Slice onion thinly. Mix dashi by mixing dashi stock powder with hot water to dissolve it.
Heat pan with oil. Add onions and cook for about 7 minutes till softened.
Add in thinly sliced beef and sugar. Cook till beef is slightly browned but not fully cooked.
Add mirin, soy sauce and dashi stock. Bring to simmer and cook for about 10 minutes to reduce the stock into a thin sauce. Taste for seasoning, add a little more soy sauce if needed.
Meanwhile, heat another saucepan with oil. Cook eggs sunny-side up. The yolks should still be runny.
When beef is done simmering, divide the rice among 2 bowls. Top up with beef and egg. Garnish with chopped scallions and toasted sesame seed.
