Yoshinoya-style gyudon / Japanese beef and rice bowl
I've spent most of my time yesterday googling Japanese beef rice bowl recipe . There are so many variations online that I was getting cross-eyed of what recipe to try . I never really thought that this dish is so easy to make and can't help but said out loud , why didn't I make it before ?
I think some of you have already eaten at Yoshinoya . It's a popular Japanese fast food chain with branches all over the world . Beef bowl is their bestseller . I love eating there , the food is filling and cheap to boot ! Hey , I'm always on a budget lol
Making this dish straightforward . Depending on what cut of beef you're using , cooking time varies . I used the cut of beef that I usually use for stir fries , the cut that is also use when doing hot pot . It's thin and has a good marbling and really good for this kind of dish .
This dish calls for dashi granules ( some recipe use dashi stock ) but since I don't have it , I used chicken powder instead .
If you wonder if it tastes like the beef rice bowl of Yoshinoya .....
Definitely !

DeleteHi Anne! I love eating (and making) this rice bowl dish too. Fast, easy and best of all delicious! I like pouring a beaten egg over the beaf slices when the beef is almost done, which also means just one pan to wash for a meal :)))
ReplyDeleteAde , beaten egg sounds good as well !
DeleteThe recipe looks so simple and tasty, though I would love to try it with chicken or some other meat!
ReplyDeleteBal , I don't know if it'll work with chicken but just try it ! Or you can make chicken teriyaki as your rice topping , Yoshinoya has that on their menu ;D
DeleteAnne, your gyudon is definitely a perfect meal...specially as beef is most preferred meat choice in our household. Thank you for sharing this recipe:) BTW...your bowl is a beauty...I'm trying my best to stop envying...!
ReplyDeleteAnnie , the bowl's pretty , right ?! And it's blue , a good color for food shots lol
