Donabe / Komadosan

I love cooking koshihikari sushi rice in a Japanese donabe clay pot. Rinse the rice 4 or 5 times quickly so it doesn't absorb the silty water, soak for at least 20 minutes, dry in a colander or on mesh for an hour ideally, cook, then add about 24ml sushi vinegar for every rice cup. It's so nice you can enjoy it without soy sauce.

Dashi

make some dashi and use the stuff to make furikake after— it immediately elevates your sad rice-only desperation meal into a delicious and nourishing traditional Japanese meal

- 454g / 1lb onion, sliced pole to pole - 454g / 1lb chicken, cut into bite sized pieces - 125ml / 1/2c soy sauce - 125ml / 1/2c dashi - 125ml / 1/2c sake - 125ml / 1/2c mirin Simmer these ingredients until chicken is just cooked. Stop here if doing meal prep. When ready to serve, heat about 250ml / 1c of stew in a small pot. For one portion: crack 2 eggs into a bowl + gently fold them (break the yolks but you’re not after uniform texture here). Once the stew is just simmering, pour about 3/4 of your egg mixture over the chicken and cook for 1 min. Add the remaining 1/4 egg mixture and cover. Cook for 1 additional minute. Pull the pot from the stove and leave covered for another 1-2 minutes. Basically you are steaming a little omelette over the top of your chicken stew — ideally you want the egg to be a little runny still but if you like a hard egg you can be a lot less precious with this part. Serve over rice with thinly sliced green onion (or not). You can sub the chicken for tofu, you can do all the eggs at once (same method but do 8 eggs for the entire pot). You can serve the warmed stew over cold rice which makes it an instantly edible temperature. You can prep the whole lot, eggs included, and nuke it in the microwave when you’re ready for it. You can portion and freeze it. And most importantly, you can make this in the time it takes to cook rice.
