Ingredients

Instructions

1. Thinly slice the onions and the green onions, keeping whites and greens separate. Cut the beef into bite-sized pieces.
2. Mix the sauce: 1 ¾ cups water, 6 tbsp soy sauce, 1.5 tbsp sugar and 1.5 tsp Hondashi for the alcohol-free version, or the listed sauce ingredients (1.5 cups water, 6 tbsp soy sauce, 6 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp Hondashi) otherwise, until combined.
3. Pour the sauce into a large pot, add the sliced onions and the white parts of the green onions, and bring to a boil.
4. Once boiling, reduce to medium heat and simmer 2 minutes, until the onions turn translucent.
5. Add the beef, separating any sticking pieces. Cover and simmer 5 minutes, until the beef is tender; if it is not tender enough, add a splash of water and simmer a little longer.
6. Optionally, skim off foam and impurities while simmering for a cleaner broth.
7. Divide the rice among serving bowls. Place the beef and onions on the rice and drizzle with 1 or 2 tbsp of the broth.
8. Top with pickled ginger, green onion greens and soft-boiled eggs if using. Keep leftover broth to make a second rice bowl with mushrooms or tofu.
