      And to top it off completing the challenge is literally pointless unless you’re on PlayStation or something for the “trophies/achievements” but even then it’s pointless…supposedly you can save….do the challenge for trophy and reload or something
      But it makes your meal “free” and then increases a bunch of stats that you had to max out to complete it in the first place? What’s the point!? It’s a waste of your free time for literally no reason

    We actually have something really similar here in Finland. Instead of beef we use thinly sliced reindeer, and fry it with the onions, some black pepper, allspice, butter and a bit of water for the broth. Serve that over mashed potatoes with some lingonberry jam and pickles and you've made "poronkäristys" ("fried reindeer").

    I think the official recipe that was posted by PlayStation Japan on Twitter calls for a raw egg yolk rather than a cooked sunny side up egg. But your version looks to be accurate to the look of it in the anime adaptation.
    That said, I actually suggested this a few days ago thanks to the recent tweet mentioned earlier with the recipe, talk about perfect timing (thanks for using the English dub, by the way). And since we’re on the topic of Persona, I hope you tackle Sojiro Sakura & Ren Amamiya/Joker’s curry from Persona 5 (Royal) as well as Ren/Joker’s recipes from Persona 5 Strikers at some point.

      Japan has much safer food handling standards so it's much less risky to eat raw egg. I don't think I ever could anywhere, but I definitely wouldn't try it with commercially available eggs in the US.
