Instructions

  1. Combine the onion, dashi, sake, soy sauce and sugar in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
  2. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the beef and stir until it is cooked through and the liquid has reduced to an intensely flavoured broth, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the ginger and simmer for 1 more minute. Adjust with salt and sugar to taste.
  5. Divide the rice between 2 to 3 bowls, top with the beef and sauce, and serve immediately with any optional garnishes.
