This rice bowl is budget friendly and on the table in well under an hour. Partially freezing beef for 30 minutes makes paper-thin slicing easy. Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
Method
Rinse the rice until the water runs clear, then cook it with a little more water than rice (about 1.1 to 1) until tender and fluffy. Keep it warm.
Simmer the onion in 1 cup dashi with 3 tablespoons each soy sauce and mirin, plus 1 tablespoon sugar, for 5 minutes. Add the beef and ginger and cook just until no longer pink.
Pack warm rice into bowls, press lightly to flatten and arrange the topping over it.
Garnish with ginger and serve hot.
Chef's note
A soft egg on top makes almost any donburi better.
