An ultimate katsudon recipe that can be made without deep-frying, enjoying a surprisingly crispy texture. Using pork belly, the panko fried fragrantly in a frying pan serves as the cutlet. The gently flavored egg-binding with dashi is a perfect match with rice. It's time-saving and economical, so please experience a different kind of deliciousness than regular katsudon.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Pork Belly 120g
  • Onion 1/4 (50g)
  • Eggs 2
  • Rice 200g
  • Mitsuba to taste
  • Panko 1 handful

Seasonings

  • Oil 1/2 tbsp
  • Water 2.5 tbsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] White Dashi 1 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin 2 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 1/2 tsp
  • Shichimi Togarashi to taste

Steps

  1. Thinly slice Onion 1/4 (50g).
  2. Tear Mitsuba to taste into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Cut Pork Belly 120g into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Heat Oil 1/2 tbsp in a frying pan and fry Panko 1 handful over medium heat until golden brown. [This is the key!] Fry while spreading to prevent burning, making it the color of crispy tonkatsu.
  5. Move the golden brown panko to the side of the frying pan.
  6. In the cleared space, add the cut Pork Belly and Onion, and add Water 2.5 tbsp, Soy Sauce 1 tbsp, White Dashi 1 tbsp, Mirin 2 tbsp, and Sugar 2 pinches (1/2 tsp) all together.
  7. Simmer over medium heat until the onions are tender. Once boiling, reduce to medium-low heat and simmer without boiling vigorously to preserve the dashi aroma.
  8. When the onions are very soft, reduce to low heat and pour in half of the 2 beaten Eggs.
  9. Stir lightly, cover, and steam until half-cooked. [This is the key!] Utilize the difference in cooking time between the egg yolk and white to enjoy the textural difference, by adding the egg in two stages.
  10. Pour the remaining egg mixture in the center, and steam with the lid on over very low heat.
  11. Serve Rice 200g in a bowl and top with the semi-cooked egg-binding, which still has some transparent parts.
  12. Sprinkle the fried panko on top, and add some simmering liquid as desired.
  13. Finally, scatter the torn Mitsuba and it's done. Sprinkle with Shichimi Togarashi if desired.
