    Tofu Soboro & Mushroom Rice Bowl

    ‘Soboro’ means crumbled meat in Japanese. I often use minced Pork OR Chicken, sometimes canned Fish, and Tofu is also very suitable for ‘Soboro’ dishes. Please use a good quality Firm Tofu that contains less water. If you live in Australia, I don’t recommend Coles’ Firm Tofu that has sour taste and poor texture. This …

    Salmon Rice Bowl with Chilli Oyster Sauce

    Salmon seems to be the most popular fish in Melbourne where I live. Fresh OR frozen Salmon fillets are available from any supermarket stores.

    There is a Japanese dish called ‘Oyako Don’. It is Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl and one of the most popular dishes.

    Gochujang Chikuwa Rice Bowl

    I use Soy Sauce, Sugar and Mirin to season many dishes. They are the Japanese staples. I added Gochujang (Korean Spicy Miso), Garlic and a little bit of Vinegar to this dish, and the flavour instantly changed from Japanese to Korean. The spicy and sweet sauce is very suitable for Chikuwa (Japanese tube-shape fish cakes) …

    Spicy Tofu & Cashew Rice Bowl

    This recipe is almost identical to my ‘Teriyaki Tofu Don’. I used a different flavoured sauce that was quite spicy, and I added Cashew Nuts for extra nutrients. This is a vegetarian dish. If you omit the Egg, it can be vegan. Coating Tofu pieces with Potato Starch is the important part of this recipe. …

    Sushi Rice Bowl

    This is my favourite hot day dish, that I often prepare for my family on a very hot day and I don’t want to cook anything. My kitchen has a large window that is facing west, and the kitchen can get extremely hot. While it is still not too hot, I prepare Sushi Rice and …

    Creamy Beef & Mushroom Rice Bowl

    Super thinly sliced Beef, that is available from many Asian grocery stores and some supermarkets, is very convenient to use.

    Pork Mince & Nattō Rice Bowl

    Nattō, fermented Soy Beans, is a very nutritious and healthy food. However, many people find its slimy texture and the smell are too challenging. Mix Nattō with refreshing vegetables. ‘Crunchy Nattō Rice Bowl’ is a good dish to try. This is another good one. Mix Nattō with Pork Mince. Chicken Mince is also good. Makes …

Freshly cooked Rice is covered with ‘Katsuobushi’ (Bonito Flakes) that is seasoned with Soy Sauce, then a sheet of Toasted Nori, topped with Chikuwa Tempura. Chikuwa is a tube-shape Japanese fishcake, and Chikuwa Tempura …

You don’t need to buy a bottle of Teriyaki Sauce. Using thinly sliced …
