Lemon Gyudon step by step

1. Mix beef with garlic, ginger, and salt. Set aside for 5 minutes or so..

2. Heat the pan (I used medium heat) and pour 2 tsp sesame oil in it. Stir-fry onion until translucent. Then add the beef. Flip and mix occasionally until they turn brown. It will probably take about 5-7 minutes..

3. Turn off the heat. Add honey and mix..

4. Add lemon juice and sesame oil. Mix until well combined. If you think it still needs more salt, add a pinch or two..

5. Put some on top of rice. Add furikake, scallion, and lemon slice. Enjoy!.

I was forced to make a few changes.

One, the photo showed some snow peas added in.

With the corona virus social distancing, I was running low on fresh vegs, so very thin sliced carrots and some slices of green onion went in–the carrots with the onions at the beginning, and the green onion at the end–oh, yeah; also a little fresh spinach at the end.

The popular chain Yoshinoya in California sells Gyudon, and it is pretty tasty.

Yoshinoya is where I first tasted Gyudon and it is where I went for recipe inspiration.
