📝 Preparation Steps
1
Soak 1 cup short grain rice with 2 cups water. Soaking the rice in water helps soften the rice as short grain rice can be hard in the center if not soaked.

2
Slice ½ small white onion thinly and chop your apple.

3
Prepare the beef marinade by mixing ½ tablespoon instant dashi powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, ½ tablespoon dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon mirin, 1 teaspoon sugar, ½ small white onion, and grated apple. Mix well and set aside.

Wash the soaked rice in a strainer (or in the same bowl you used before) until water runs clear. Make sure your strain all the water to ensure that you add the right amount of water in the next step. The water should barely cover the surface of the rice.

In the pot with rice, add ½ cup water and marinated beef and onions from step 3. Place pot in rice cooker and press the cook button. If you don’t have a rice cooker, use the alternative cooking instructions below.

Garnish the rice with some sliced green onions, togarashi and a fried egg (optional). I like to mix the rice together so every grain of rice is flavored with beef and sauce!
