Make a budget-friendly katsudon for four using two store-bought pork cutlets. It's a luxurious meal that can also be packed for lunch. Serve it as katsuni for dinner or with drinks. Recipe inspiration: I bought large pork cutlets from the butcher for a special price of 120 yen each. Since one cutlet serves two, I decided to make katsudon for four for dinner.

Steps

1

Cut the pork cutlets into four equal portions. Slice the onion into bite-sized pieces. Add the ingredients to a skillet and bring the dashi stock to a boil, then add the onion.
2

Once the onion is cooked, arrange the pork cutlets in the skillet and simmer for a while over medium heat to let the flavors soak in.
3

When the breading has absorbed some of the broth, sprinkle with green onions.
4

After adding the green onions, turn the heat to high. Once boiling, pour the beaten eggs evenly over the skillet, shake the skillet gently, and when the eggs are partially set, turn off the heat and cover with a lid.
5

Be careful not to over-steam, as the eggs will become fully set. Serve while some parts are still soft.
6

Drizzle a small amount of broth over the rice, then use a slotted spatula or a flat utensil to neatly serve the ingredients over the rice. Enjoy your meal.
