gyuudon

牛丼 ぎゅうどん

A Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with beef and onion simmered in a mildly sweet sauce flavored with dashi (fish and seaweed stock), soy sauce and mirin (sweet rice wine). It also often includes shirataki noodles, and is sometimes topped with a raw egg. A very popular food in Japan, it is commonly served with benishouga (pickled ginger), shichimi (ground chili pepper), and a side dish of miso soup. Gyuu means "cow" or "beef", and don is short for donburi, the Japanese word for "bowl".
