Gyudon, also known as beef bowl, is a popular japanese dish made with a bowl of rice topped with beef and onion simmered in a sweet soy sauce based broth. Gyudon is quick and easy to make and I like to serve it with benishoga. The key to making gyudon is the thinly sliced beef. You can find the thinly sliced beef in Japanese or Korean Markets.

Ingredients:

1 bowl of cooked rice
1/2 cup water
3 tablespoon soy sauce
5 tablespoon mirin (Japanese sweet cooking wine)
1 1/2 teaspoon granulated dashi (Japanese Soup Stock)
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 oz thinly sliced beef (ribeye)
1/4 sweet onion (if you like onions, you can add more)
benishoga (red ginger) for topping (optional)

Makes 1 Beef Bowl

Cooking Instructions:

Step 1: Slice onion thinly

Step 2: Put water, soysauce, mirin, dashi, and sugar in a pot and
let the mixture come to a simmer.

Step 3: Add onion slices and simmer for about 2 minutes

Step 4: Add Beef and simmer for about 4 minutes. Turn off heat and let it stand for about 3 minutes.

Step 5: Put the beef and onion topping over a bowl of rice. There will be some left over broth. Serve with benishoga (red ginger) if desired.
