Nikujaga (肉じゃが, lit. 'meat [and] potatoes'[a]) is a Japanese dish of meat, potatoes, and onions stewed in dashi, soy sauce, mirin, and sugar, sometimes with ito konnyaku and vegetables like carrots.[1] Nikujaga is a kind of nimono. It is usually boiled until most of the liquid has been reduced.[2] Thinly sliced beef is the most common meat used, although minced or ground beef is also popular.[3] Pork is often used instead of beef in eastern Japan.[3]
Nikujaga is a common home-cooked winter dish, served with a bowl of white rice and miso soup. It is also sometimes seen in izakayas.[citation needed]
