Beef Rice Bowl – Gyudon

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

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

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 husband likes leeks in his gyudon and I like onions in mine. So I used both!If you don't have both onions and Japanese leeks, just use one.Use more onions to make the dish sweeter, and leeks to make it more salty. Adjust the flavor with sugar and soy sauce to taste at the end. Recipe by Ruicha

This is easy for dinner~just add salad & miso soup to complete it (*^^*)

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

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

I wanted to eat a hearty rice bowl once in a while, so I created this recipe.When you have too much oil in the pan, wipe it up with paper towels before adding the sauce. It's better to make a little bit more sauce than needed. It's also delicious to add a small amount of grated garlic in the sauce. Recipe by Heart restaurant

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

This Beef Rice Bowl is a simple and delicious meal made in a rice cooker. Tender beef cooks together with rice, allowing the flavors to blend perfectly. It’s an easy, hearty dish that’s perfect for a satisfying meal! Enjoy!

This started out with a recipe for inarizushi tofu skins.I've been able to increase my repertoire of recipes using our family's Golden Ratio of ingredients...This recipe is really easy, so I don't have any tips in particular. Any cut of beef is fine as long as it's thinly sliced.If you add shirataki for additional volume it'll be even tastier! For 4-5 servings. Recipe by Naomoka

My yuzu pepper loving mother taught me this recipe. My mother doesn't put it on rice, but just enjoys it as a sake appetizer. It's delicious that way too!If you simmer the sauce in the frying pan for too long the yuzu pepper flavor will dissipate, so just coat the meat quickly. For 2 to 3 generous servings. Recipe by Kimocchi

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

I had leftover sukiyaki beef, so I simmered it to make a beef rice bowl.You can use shredded meat as long as it's beef. If you simmer the meat for too long, it'll become hard, so make sure that you cook it until it's just cooked through, then let it absorb the flavour in residual heat. When the taste is too strong, adjust with water. Recipe by Ni-na

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.

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

My husband loves gyu-don. I modified it to make it extra special.It goes well with mayonnaise, although it'll up the calorie count. Recipe by Shunkou mama

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.

This is one of the easy dishes I like to cook when I get busy. With this recipe, you can make gyuudon in no time.Since it's easy to make, there aren't hints to share. Recipe by Kurohyou oyuki

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.

Japanese Pork Rice Bowl or Butadon is another quick and easy recipe great for a weeknight. Similar to the Japanese Beef Bowl (Gyudon) and Japanese Chicken Bowl (Oyakodon), but this rice bowl is made of pork instead. Pork belly or pork shoulder is much preferred because it's a fattier meat and yields a more moist texture and flavor. If you want leaner meat for a heart-healthy diet, try using pork sirloin which is drier and tougher. Since it's drier, you will need to use slightly more cooking oil or use some water to cook the yellow onion.This dish tastes more refreshing with some shredded veggies such as cabbage, lettuce, or kale, and sprinkle some shredded green onion and Japanese seven flavor chili power which will greatly enhance the flavor. Try it and see for yourself!

When I was a child, I used to eat leftover sukiyaki mixed with rice, like fried rice. It was so delicious that I wanted to recreate that flavor easily.When you make the poached egg, by creating a vortex in the water by stirring it with chopsticks, the white will wrap itself around the yolk. If the white spreads out, flip it over the yolk with a fork. Use low heat, and don't let the water boil. For 2 servings. Recipe by FarmersK

You can use 1 1/2 tbsp of white wine and 1 tsp of sugar instead of mirin, but mirin is much better!

Fried bean curd cooked in a sweet-savory sauce on rice (called kitsune-don) is delicious and I love it, but I thought that in the summer months when appetites are lagging something spicy like this would be better. My husband really liked it so I decided to upload it here!You can freeze aburaage (fried flat tofu), so it's useful to keep stocked. I make the sauce with dashi stock so it's not that spicy. It's also good on top of udon noodles. Recipe by pappatyan

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.
