Katsudon

Today is the last day of my spring break, and my b/f wanted to make it special by making Katsudon for me. If you're like me and don't know what katsudon is, let me tell you. It's a bowl layered with rice, sauteed onions, fried egg, donkatsu cutlets, and parsley. I've never had it before, so I was really excited to try it. As he slaved away in the kitchen, I wanted to be helpful by baking something for dessert, but that's for the next post!

My first bite was amazing, and I loved everything about it! It's definitely a comfort food that I can imagine eating on any occasion. I wish I could've taken pictures of the process, but I was busy so all you get is the final product.

I believe this is the recipe he used, although the original recipe uses chicken instead of pork:

Both are good starting points for making your very own Katsudon! Bon appetit!
