Japanese Pork Rice Bowl or Butadon is another quick and easy recipe great for a busy weeknight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Similar to the Japanese Beef Bowl, Gyudon, and Japanese Chicken Bowl, Oyakodon, this rice bowl is made of pork instead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pork belly or pork shoulder is much preferred because it’s a fattier meat and yields a more moist texture and flavor. If you want leaner meat for a heart-healthy diet, try using pork sirloin which is drier and tougher. Since it’s drier, you will need to use slightly more cooking oil or use some water to cook yellow onion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This dish tastes more refreshing with some shredded veggies such as cabbage, lettuce or kale. And you can sprinkle some shredded green onion and Japanese seven flavor chili power to enhance the flavor. Try it and see for yourself! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
