Oyakodon (Japanese chicken and egg rice bowl)

Anyone can tell me if god creates chicken or egg first. This question always come to my mind when eating oyakodon. Bok always like to eat oyakodon in Japan. I think is because of the sauce and makes the rice tasty and easy to eat.

Of course, I have to recreate the meal back home. This is really a idiot proof dish and fast easy meal to prepare. I always cook this during my lazy days. Pair with either grilled eel / saba plus miso soup will complete the whole meal




Recipe

2 boneless drumstick, cut into small pieces
1/2 onion, sliced
200ml dashi soup
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 tbsp sugar
