Katsudon

🧺 Ingredients

• 1 store-bought tonkatsu (or leftover fried cutlet)
• 1/2 onion, thinly sliced
• 2 eggs, barely beaten
• Sauce: 1/2 cup dashi, 2 tbsp soy, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tsp sugar
• 1 big bowl hot rice, scallions

👩‍🍳 Steps

1. 1

   Heat the cutlet until crisp (oven or air fryer), slice into strips.

2. 2

   Simmer onion in the sauce in a small pan until translucent, 3 minutes.

3. 3

   Lay the cutlet on the onions, pour egg around in a spiral.

4. 4

   Lid on, 60–90 seconds — the egg should tremble, not bounce.

5. 5

   Slide the whole thing over rice. Scallions. Silence. Gratitude.
