I remember in my Japanese class in college we had a cooking day. We made this dish called Katsudon. Katsudon means deep-fried pork rice bowl in Japanese. If you’ve never heard of it, this dish is katsu (breaded pork) served over rice with green onions and eggs. It’s very tasty. It’s packed with protein and delicious Asian flavor. It’s one of my favorite meals to order at Japanese restaurants. It’s easy to make too. After you eat one, you’ll want to go for seconds. Itadakimasu! (Let’s eat!) 🇯🇵
