Katsudon

This Japanese dish uses the chicken katsu. It’s a rice topping with egg, soy sauce, dashi, mirin and sugar. Mirin is a rice wine similar with sake commonly used with Japanese dishes. 

Ingredients:

8 tablespoon water

½ teaspoon dashi powder

2 teaspoon sugar

4 tablespoon mirin

3 tablespoon soy sauce

sliced onions

1 beaten egg

cilantro

Directions:

  • Add water, dashi powder, sugar, mirin, and soy sauce to a small pan
  • Incorporate the onions and chicken katsu, then cover for 2 minutes
  • Add the egg and the cilantro, cover for about 2-3 minutes before transferring to the bowl of rice
  • Serve while hot

TabiEats inspired me to make use of the chicken katsu. It’s so good! The sauce is sweet, sour, and salty at the same time. Try this recipe.
