Best Beef Hayashi Omurice

Step 1

Caramelize the onions. Prepare a large pot and heat on high. Once the butter has melted, add the sliced onions.

Step 2

Bring the heat to a medium and stir to make sure that the onions cook evenly. Supplement with neutral oil if the onions start burning and sticking.

Step 3

After 10-15 minutes, the onions should be golden. Bring the heat back up to high and add beef and stir it around with the onions so it’s not in big chunks.

Step 4

Add marinara, red wine, chicken stock.

Step 5

Once the mixture comes up to boil, add the S&B Hayashi rice sauce block. Mix to combine.

Step 6

Add soy sauce, ketchup, and bulldog sauce. And simmer for another 10 minutes.

Step 7

Turn the heat off and finish with 1 tbsp of butter. This makes the sauce silky and glossy.

Step 8

Cover with lid and let it rest— this will help the sauce thicken up and ensure that it’s not piping hot. Alternatively, cool and put in the fridge overnight. This will allow the flavors to deepen!

Step 9

Crack the eggs and mix well until homogenous.

Step 10

Pass the mixture through a sieve.

Step 11

Season with salt.

Step 12

Prepare a medium-sized non-stick skillet.

Step 13

Heat on medium-high heat. Melt butter or drizzle neutral oil.

Step 14

Once the oil has melted, add the egg mixture.

Step 15

Shake the pan while whisking the mixture with a rubber spatula.

Step 16

Once the eggs have a runny scrambled texture, tilt the pan to bring the mixture to the bottom of the pan.

Step 17

Slowly rotate the omelette to close the seam. The omelette should be in a rugby-ball shape. Once the seam has been closed, gently place the omelette on top of the rice. The rice should also be in a steep rugby shape so that the omelette can unfold once cut open.

Step 18

Ladle on a generous portion of the hayashi sauce on top of the omurice. Enjoy!
