Simmered Shiitake & Egg Rice Bowl Recipe by Hiroko Liston
 Hiroko Liston @hirokoliston Melbourne, Australia ‘Simmered Shiitake’ is not something you come across at Japanese restaurants, but it is a popular food in Japan where I grew up. I often cook a large batch, and enjoy it as a side dish with freshly cooked Rice, OR use it as a filling OR topping for Sushi dishes. With an Egg and a Spring Onion, you can make this rice bowl. It doesn’t look fancy, does it? It is delicious, though. ‘Simmered Shiitake’ is not something you come across at Japanese restaurants, but it is a popular food in Japan where I grew up.

Comments Similar Recipes Creamy 'Oyako Don' Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl Creamy 'Oyako Don' Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl Ever since buying a cheap donburi pot at a 100-yen store, we've been preparing this dish this way. Don't beat the eggs too much, just beat it lightly until there is still some trace of the white. The key to a soft-set finish is to pour in the egg in two batches. You could mushrooms too. Adjust the flavoring ingredients to your taste.

Recipe by Komomomomo cookpad.japan Meltingly Soft Kakuni-don: Simmered Pork Belly Rice Bowl! Meltingly Soft Kakuni-don: Simmered Pork Belly Rice Bowl! The meltingly soft simmered pork belly is sublime! Enjoy with soft-boiled simmered eggs! If you steam the pork belly slowly in a steamer, it will become meltingly soft. The pork belly falls apart easily, so the key is to treat it gently with your tongs and spatula. If you use a pressure cooker you can shorten the cooking time. If using a pressure cooker, instead of simmering the pork for 3 hours, simmer for 15 minutes and then just leave as-is to cool in the simmering liquid. For 5 servings.
