Our Family's Delicious Gyodon Beef Rice Bowl

I've bought 10 cookbooks just to perfect my beef bowl recipe. This recipe really is a labor of love.This tastes better if you use wine as your cooking alcohol. Red or white or really cheap, they all work. You can adjust the amounts of the other ingredients to your taste. If you're using mentsuyu noodle sauce for this, use a 3x concentrate type. Please taste and adjust as you go along. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by kenken mama

We always had some of the cooking sauce left over whenever my mother made her simmered daikon radish dish, but we then discovered that spooning the sauce over rice was extra delicious.The amount the sauce reduces depending on how strong the heat is, so please adjust the seasoning if needed.I use rice in here rather than rinsing water from rice (which is normally used for simmering daikon radish), so please mix well several times as you would with rice porridge to prevent it from burning. The softer and creamier it is the better, so simmer it twice so that it's as soft as possible. For 4 servings. Recipe by yakopuyo

When it comes to Oyako Don, this is a family favorite.If you don't have dashi stock, make it by adding 1/2 teaspoon of dashi powder to 200 ml of water. If you prefer a more concentrated flavor, increase the sugar and soy sauce a little. Recipe by Kyoku

I wanted to make homemade delicious beef rice bowls for my family.To evaporate the alcohol content from sake, and not to overcook the beef. Recipe by Chibitokuma

You can make gyudon any time as long as you have some onions and beef, so it's a easy to make life saver. I've been making this way for a long time.You can use a cheap cut of beef, but choose a type that has plenty of fat and is thinly sliced for the best flavor. Please adjust the amount of sugar and soy sauce to your liking. For 4 generous servings. Recipe by Kyoku

My son loves Yoshinoya and used to go there a lot. (One reason is that we have one really close to our house...) I thought I could make it at home using cheap cuts of beef, and after several tries I got to this recipeWhen I finally got it right, so here it is!You start by making the caramel. The caramel doesn't have to be dark brown, just as long as it has some color. You don't have to add garlic, but ginger is essential or it won't taste right. A dash of white wine is the secret to Yoshinoya beef bowls. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by smapkayo

My mother used to make this all the time. (She used to use oil at Step 2.) It's good if you just start simmering it in dashi stock, but the onion becomes sweeter and the meat doesn't get dried out and stay tender if you stir fry them in advance.Add some shimeji mushrooms or whatever you like. The umeboshi plum is my addition. We put it in the bowl at the last minute before eating and mix it in. It adds a very refreshing flavor. Please add this to your taste. For 2-3 servings.

Japanese comfort food at it’s finest, this easy beef dish is popular and filling! Thinly sliced beef simmered in a sweet, umami rich sauce, you can even top it off with some shichimi togarashi for some added heat!

I recreated a delicious Tokyo-style red gyuudon that I had in Ueno.None. Recipe by Cooking S Papa

My husband eats this up eagerly every time and tells me it's just like the beef rice bowl they serve at Yoshinoya. (Personally, I don't really know why he says Yoshinoya -- I can't tell the difference between the beef bowls they serve in the Yoshinoya vs. Sukiya chains.)Skim off all the scum diligently while you simmer the beef with the seasonings.You can use water + 1/2 teaspoon dashi stock granules for the dashi stock.You can vary this quite a lot with different toppings, such as a whole raw egg or egg yolk, kimchi, grated nagaimo yam and more.There's plenty of sauce, so you can increase the beef to 500 g if you like. For 2 servings. Recipe by *Anna*

I got the idea for this by watching a TV program.The meat is crispy and juicy!The egg is fluffy!If you add gelatin to the egg whites, they'll be even fluffier!I recommend you eat half of it, then add dashi or tea and eat up the rest! It's great! Recipe by Kojima ponsuke

This is a very popular dish in our region.I make the sauce on the sweet side for my children. For adults, you may want to mix in some regular Worcestershire sauce to kick up the spice and vinegar a little. We use pork filet for the tonkatsu, but pork loin is ok too. You could also use store bought tonkatsu if you like.If you're a mayonnaise fan, top on the tonkatsu.If you put the coating on the pork by mixing the eggs and flour instead of flour -> egg -> panko, it's easier and you have less washing to do. For 3 to 4 servings. Recipe by wedgwood

I've been making this recipe for a long time. It's one of my family's favorites.At my house, we have been adding shirataki noodles to gyuudon to make it more filling. You can add more onion if you like. For the dashi stock, you can also use dashi stock granules + water. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

It's a little on the sweet side.The beef, onions and maitaken mushrooms absorb the sauce well.The flavor is better absorbed if you let it cool once and then reheat it before serving!I add onions and maitake, but you could add thinly sliced burdock roots. Recipe by Mikko*mikko

I made this at the request of my family.Please adjust the amount of sukiyaki sauce to taste. Recipe by Tenukimamanokitchen

My child is getting old for baby food, but I always keep forgetting to set a portion aside for him. I don't want to be bothered to make another dish for him either.I started cooking with a pressure cooker to simplify cooking. This dish is healthy as it's not fried and the meat is tender.Prepare steamed rice and a filling miso soup as you wait.If using cheap meat, season the beef with sake to tenderize and remove the odor.I seasoned the dish lightly and the meat is tender enough to handle with chopsticks. You can serve this to little children as it is. Separate your children's portion before adding the ginger. Recipe by Gasukun

I love Mongolian beef, so I've been trying to find an easy recipe that taste like I like. This one is pretty close. But it seems to be a fine line between the proper flavor, and too salty. Using broth to replace some of the salty soy sauce, balances the salty and flavor out, I think.

I wanted to eat a beef rice bowl (gyudon). I wanted to recreate the flavor of the dishes served in a certain chain of beef rice bowl restaurants and top it with red pickled ginger, but I didn't have any so I used new harvest ginger pickled in sweet vinegar. Recipe by Shiroi grape

I had this at Okamura restaurant, and it was so delicious that I decided to make it myself.- After simmering, if you let it cool before eating, the flavors will blend in even more and it will taste even better.- It's best if you use tendons with a lot of red meat. For 4 servings. Recipe by Cooking S Papa

I make this year round.You could use steamed green beans, okra or any green vegetables. The eggs are not seasoned with salt, so flavor the green vegetables. Recipe by Nayuho

This is the taste that my mother-in-law passed down to me.A lot of liquid comes out of the onion, so if you wish to increase the amount of the onions, add green onion or Japanese leek.A convenient way to remember is that if you add 1 part sugar, you add 2 parts sake and soy sauce each. For 4 servings. Recipe by nao life

This is our family's favorite sauce for quick rice bowls, such as katsu-don or oyako-don.For 1 serving, combine 50 ml of water, 1/2 teaspoon of dashi stock powder, 2 tablespoons of mirin, 1 tablespoon each of soy sauce and sake. Pour in the beaten eggs in two batches for a fluffy texture of soft cooked eggs.You can transform leftover katsu into another dish. Apply this recipe to make oyako-don or various egg dishes. Recipe by Naomoka

Pretty easy, no real "hard to find" ingredients for most people.This is not a real strong flavored Korean style dish. Most people should like this one. I have a tendency toward the stronger and hotter styles, but not my wife. This is a decent way to allow many to enjoy this type of flavor profile, and by adding some hot sauce, each individual can tailor it to their own heat level.

Ever since buying a cheap donburi pot at a 100-yen store, we've been preparing this dish this way.Don't beat the eggs too much, just beat it lightly until there is still some trace of the white. The key to a soft-set finish is to pour in the egg in two batches. You could mushrooms too. Adjust the flavoring ingredients to your taste. Recipe by Muuny

I made this because the slice of meat that I received was for only one person.You can divide a thick slice of meat meant for one person into 2 and there will be enough, however I wanted to eat plenty until my stomach was full.The oil from the meat contains lots of flavour so please don't wipe it away.Since this slice of meat is only for one person and you're using it for two people, I think it really shouldn't make that much oil. Recipe by Tomochi

This was a modified recipe for steak I wanted to try. I also made Korean Style Cucumber Salad to go with it, and it was awesome together, recipe for that is here also. (Korean Style Cucumber Salad https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/4637052-korean-style-cucumber-salad )So this kinda-sorta is a teriyaki take off. Not as sweet, but works really nicely. Not Spicy as you can tell from the ingredients list. It actually is made pretty quickly. I used a flat iron steak here, but NY strip, sirloin, skirt, all work.

My family's favorite dish is Kansai-style sukiyaki and I wanted to make it easily. With this simplified version over rice, I have less washing to do afterward. I've made this often.The dish is flavored strongly, so you can transform cheap beef into a delicious dish! You could use pork if you prefer!! (Sliced pork belly is recommended).I wanted to make this dish easily so I just used beef and Japanese leek, but add your favorite ingredients such as tofu, shirataki noodles, or fu wheat gluten. Recipe by Reirazuka

Here is a relatively easy and tasty dish. A good weekday dinner.Just watch the salt levels, it can overwhelm if you are not careful.If you don't have dark soy sauce, just leave it out. If you don't have sesame oil, just leave it out.I had regular soy sauce, oyster sauce, but used low sodium chicken broth.I added no salt to the beef.
