I had my first steak donburi while on vacation in Karuizawa, Japan and it was truly one of the best dishes I've ever eaten. This is my version of the steak donburi which has a stronger tare than the version I had in Japan. #june2026

Steps

45 mins

1

Slice onions and caramelize slowly in a pan on medium low
2

To filets that have been rested at room temperature for at least 30 mins, salt and place on a medium hot pan. Depending on how thick your filets are, I cooked mine for about 7 mins and let it rest in foil for 10 mins.
3

For the sauce: combine soy sauce, sake, mirin, sugar, and bonito flakes in a small sauce pan and heat till warm
4

Assemble: to a bowl add rice, top with onions and layers of thinly sliced filet mignon, add sauce on top of meat and to the side add a small dab of wasabi
