How to Make Katsudon | カツ丼 | Japanese Pork Cutlet Rice Bowl
Katsudon is one of the most popular ways of eating tonkatsu in Japan, but it hasn’t quite caught on abroad as much. I think it’s because of the idea of putting a crispy fried thing into a liquid that softens it isn’t often done in Western cooking. The idea, however, is quite common in Japanese cuisine and it is done so that the breading will absorb the flavour of the liquid while softening to a sticky (ネチョネチョ), silky (ネバネバ) texture.

Imagine if Gordon Ramsay was yelling at you to do all this it wouldn’t taste as good would it
When i was twelve years old i traveled to Japan to be a exchange student. After landing in Tokyo Mr. Kanzaki "father of the family i stayed with" asked if i would like to eat before we started the train trip back to his home in Narita. I agreed and he took me to what i would consider to be the equivalent to an western pub. And this was my first meal while in Japan, and will probably be one of the most memorable. Now as a merchant mariner im lucky that my work brings me back to Japan quite often. I typically make port in either Sasebo "love the burgers" and Yokohama "ramen". But ive made it a tradition that my first meal is always Katsudon.

At the time i was 12 so the smaller portions felt closer to a meal. The decor had a sort of British feel to it but still was distinctly Japanese. Look up Izakaya, this was the type of place that we went to.

And I read that in his voice.
About 20 years ago I was working at a Japanese factory for a few weeks and met this guy named Toshi. One day he asked me if I could help him move. I didn't know him very well but thought it wouldn't hurt to make a friend and maybe he didn't have anyone else to ask so I agreed. I showed up early saturday morning and he made a pork dish similar to this. It was delicious and I'll never forget it.

I'm half Japanese, but am not a big fan of Katsudon, although everyone in my family loves it. I currently take care of my mother who is Japanese and has Alzheimer's, and doesn't remember a lot of recipes, so when I make Katsudon for here, I always have to look up the recipe. This by far has been the closest and, as someone said earlier, your voice is very calming. I do make quite a bit of Japanese food, but mostly the stuff I like. LOL Thank you, I'm going to try this recipe tonight with the exception of making my own dashi. :)
He and Marion's channel are two of my favourite cooking channels! Always easy, informative and at the same time exciting!
I feel like an idiot, this was a favorite dish of mine but I somehow mistook Katsudon as Tonkatsu in the last year or so and couldnt figure out why it was never the same when ordering Tonkatsu.

Hello fellow Yuri on ice fans 👋
Katsudon is my daughter's and my favorite dish from Japan. I was stationed there for several years and my daughter and I would stop at a take-away place that carried katsudon and get some to go.
This has been a staple with my family growing up. My mother made this differently, sautéing the onions and sauce together in the pan, adding the tonkatsu to the rice bowl, covering with the onions and sauce, then cracking the egg into the bowl directly. All ingredients would be steaming hot. She would then cover each bowl with a tightly fitting lid and let the egg steam in the bowl for a few minutes. Uncover, garnish, and serve. This brings back memories of time spend around a dinner table with family. Very nice recipe.
This calming atmosphere is so perfect
im gonna cry the cinematography and sound design make his recipe video into something so soothing
Imma send this recipe to yuri, so he can make it for victor
Adam thanks a lot for your amazing videos! Not only are they visually and audibly extremely well done, somtimes even relaxing to watch, but they also really transport the beauty of japanese kitchen very well. I love asian food, but somehow never found access to japanese cuisine, it always felt like "too much fish and algae", until I started watching your videos, and they opened up a whole ne world of japanese cooking I somehow didn't notice before. Thanks a lot for that!
The first time I was stationed in Japan, I went off base by myself looking for lunch. Katsudon was the first thing I ate. Can’t wait to make this.
This channel makes a peaceful vibe of cooking
Perfect way to use up my leftover tonkatsu! It makes sense that Japanese textural preferences would be different than westerns ones because Japan was closed off from the world, in a culinary vacuum, for hundreds of years. Looking forward to trying this!
One of my favourite dishes of all time! Thank you so much for this video, gonna make this tomorrow!
I was waiting for this one! Katsudon is my favourite!
I've prepared this now on a few occasions and it's slowly becoming one of my parents' favourite dishes.
Great choice in music, and ty for showing me a dish I never knew existed! You are a wonderful chef
So simple but so elegant.
Love the Fish Suace ‘s Solution!! Brilliant!! 👍🏼👏🏼
With Katsudon you cant-go-wrong!
I just watched his rice video and in the middle of watching, I got the curiosity on how to make katsudon and I'm very pleased to see him again :)
Really looking forward to making this soon. Thanks a lot Adam!

Me and a friend finished YoI last night and I made katsudon for the first time to mark the event ❤️
Incredible video. Very instructional. Very thorough. And you can tell this is a professional seasoned chef. Makes a complicated looking dish turn into an easy cuisine.
The cutlet deep frying sounds like rain falling, and it all looks perfect. Zen cooking.
Its amazing how clean his cooking area stays while putting a breading on something
Literally just asked for this video the other day, and here it is. What a boss :) Katsudon is by far my favorite Japanese food (and favorite dish out of any, period).
I've been doing that water and fish sauce thing for years to make the taste of the fish sauce mild and I didn't know that it's actually a cheat for dashi.
Excuse me while I piece my mind together after it's been blown by that Dashi cheat. That is just *chefs kiss*

right?! people talk about chewing/crunch sounds being soothing but they honestly creep me out big time, they really bother me. Then on top of that, what are people supposed to do? Take a bite and be like "okay, this was underwhelming, I guess this turned out pretty meh." its just unnecessary, you're not gonna bad mouth your own video, and it can't be tasted until we cook it at home, so I like seeing the results without the "ending"

As a Vietnamese living in Japan, thanks so much for your cheat tip!
Looks amazing !!!
wow.....just wow.....
I've generally shy from pork... But watching you make tonkatsu it has really roused my confidence in being able to treat the meat with the respect I want to give it. Really loving this non-series and the way you cut through some of the more mysterious little bits that are hard to get straight answers for (especially from an Australian perspective).
Adam Liaw , you're really great to listen too, the food is amazing , good luck with everything 👍
Thank you! Love your presentation of it and the dashi cheat is a major plus!!!
Thanks Adam. I've always wanted to learn how to make this. It always looks so delicious on the Japanese food channels.
Hi Adam. I'm sitting here drinking a Red Stripe or 2 in the cold UK, and I could just now eat a Chicken Katsudon after watching this. Your food is simply amazing. Your demonstrations are so easy to follow. I love cooking Japanese food, and your videos really help me learn more. Thank you so much Adam for all your hard work. Shaun, Nottingham, UK :)

Been curious about this dish for a while now (I can't find the real deal locally), and it looks so much easier to make than I expected, so I may have to give it a go! Thanks Adam!
This is my new favourite show 😋
I was reading a story on reddit about a girl who loved Katsudon and the man who always made it for her, her best friend and her roommate. She loved every single time that he made Katsudon and I had no idea what Katsudon was so I searched it up and saw this and now I might actually try to make it since it looks delicious
Yum this is my favourite food
I open KZread to watch something whilst making Chilli Oil inspired by you and you post a new video. 😂
This was an absolutely gorgeous recipe and wonderfully executed. Bravo indeed. I'm a huge ramen fan and found your ramen school amazingly simple and instructive. You are a great artist my friend.
Outrageous!!! Yum!
Amazing video! Can't wait to make this for date night!
I don't know if they use something similar in Japan as they do in Korea, but I think one fun thing you could do with this dish is preheat the rice in a 돌솥 (stone bowl) brushed down with a little oil while the katsu and toppings are steaming. Just enough to give the rice some nice caramelization on the bottom.

This recipe rocks. I've been wanting to make this dish for decades. After many false starts, yours works. My only failing? The pork cutlet was a bit too thick. I can fix that. I knew this was the right path while putting the dashi together. The aroma took me right back to Japan. Thanks for sharing.
This is one of the most aesthetically pleasing cooking videos I have ever seen. How come I only found this channel now? Subscribing immediately)
Great recipe
This music is so relaxing 😌
this has got to be the best soul food I ever put in my mouth.
While I was in Japan, a friend of mine asked me to find a dish that this parents, who were visiting the country at the time, would eat. I was told that they weren't very adventurous eaters, but they still wanted to try something quintessentially Japanese, so after thinking for a long time, I took them to a place that served katsudon. I was worried that the unfamiliar "semi-cooked" texture of the egg might put them off, but they were blown away and ate absolutely all of it. Wonderful dish.
I had this in Okinawa when I was teaching there. They added green peppers and bean sprouts (moyashi) to the vegetables. One of the students recommended it to me when we went to grab lunch from a local vendor. After that, I was having it twice a week for lunch.
the moments from 1:15 on are so chill yet so epic due to the music
Looks delicious
Thank you so much I’ve been wanting to try and make this but didn’t have dashi this is just what I needed
Maaan, this looks so good🥲
So good thank you!
