This rice bowl dish is very quick and easy for me to prepare because I almost always have a bottle of my family’s ‘Yakiniku’ Sauce in the fridge. If you have a store-bought ‘Yakiniku’ Sauce, you can use it. If you don’t have it, don’t give up. I have included a simple alternative sauce in this recipe. Today I seasoned the Rice into Sushi Rice. This is a very filling and comforting dish, that is perfect for my lunch.
