Katsudon is Tonkatsu (deep-fried pork) and eggs cooked in a sweet and salty broth and placed over rice. Don (donburi) means a bowl, and Donburi dishes are a popular kind of casual rice dish in Japan. Because you have to prepare Tonkatsu first, it is a little bit of work involved since you cannot cook everything in one pan.

A tip to making a delicious katsudon is to distribute the egg over high heat while the tonkatsu is still fresh and warm. Avoid over-mixing the egg otherwise it will lose its rich and fluffy texture.
