Gyudon Japanese Beef Bowl

• 1 large white onion
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon mirin
• 1 tablespoon sake
• 1/2 pound beef ribeye steak, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, or to taste (optional)
• 2 green onions, thinly sliced, or to taste (optional)
• 2 teaspoons pickled ginger (beni shoga), or to taste (optional)
• 1 sheet dried seaweed, cut into strips, or to taste (optional)

1. Halve the onion and discard the central-most part. Cut halves into thin slices.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add onion; cook and stir until it starts to brown, about 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium-low; add water, soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, and sake and simmer until flavors combine, about 3 minutes.
3. Stir beef into the skillet. Cook, covered, until beef is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Divide between serving bowls and garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, ginger, and seaweed strips.
