Katsudon is a hearty and comforting Japanese rice bowl featuring a crispy pork cutlet (tonkatsu) simmered in a sweet-savory dashi-soy sauce broth with onions and lightly beaten egg, then served over a bowl of steamed white rice. The name combines katsu (cutlet) and don (donburi or rice bowl). It’s especially popular in home kitchens, school cafeterias, and casual eateries, and is often eaten by students before exams or athletes before competitions as a good luck meal, since katsu sounds like the word for “win” in Japanese.
