Recipe: katsudon | Japanese cuisine
Japanese cuisine is common thing in our home, my husband is cooking Japanese food. He often offers to teach me Japanese cuisine and since he works very hard and I actually want Japanese food, I learned several of my favorite and simple recipes from him, which I share with you :)
The calculation of the ingredients is based on how much you consume garnish. The number of ingredients in my recipe is calculated for one large portion of rice. If you eat not much, then reduce the serving in two or even three times.
I write the recipe for schnitzel but you can use minced meat or fish instead of schnitzel, which must be cooked before.
Dashi is Japanese fish stock. If you do not have the opportunity to buy it (in Estonia you can buy, for example, in nori store, a link to the product: https://www.nori.ee/maitseained/dashinomoto_50), then it can be replaced with any other available fish / meat / vegetable based stock but the taste will be slightly different from the original.

ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteI have to admit, my obsession with Japanese kitchen is related to Japanese anime... because I'm a huge fan and watch every single anime series I am now also in love with Japanese culture and kitchen too. Trying to find all the recipes I can and cook, which isn't easy for me because up until now I was only good in Papas Games, (online cooking games for kids). and now... I can cook Takoyaki, Ramen, Doroyaki etc. Anyway, thank you very much for this recipe, it gonna take a while but I'll definitely master it!.
