I like Ham & Egg on Toast. And I like Ham & Egg on Rice, too. Ham & Egg on Rice is a super easy dish and actually quite popular. The easiest and most popular version is probably Ham & Egg on Rice with Soy Sauce. With an extra small effort, you can bring this simple dish to next level. Add a little bit of Garlic and Mirin to Soy Sauce.
Makes
1 Serving
Ingredients
A few slices Smoked Ham
1 Egg
1 teaspoon Oil
1 serving warm Cooked Rice
Crispy Chilli Oil *optional but highly recommended
Finely chopped Spring Onion
Sauce
1/2 tablespoon Soy Sauce
1/2 tablespoon Mirin
1 small clove Garlic *grated
Method
- Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
- Cut Ham slices into the size that is easy to eat. Heat Oil in a small frying pan over medium low heat, arrange Ham pieces, place Egg in centre, cover with a lid, and cook until Egg White turns white.
- Pour the sauce over the edges and cook for 1 minute.
- Half fill a bowl with warm Cooked Rice, place Ham & Egg on top, and pour all the sauce. Add some Crispy Chilli Oil, sprinkle with finely chopped Spring Onion, and enjoy.

Thank you Hiroko, I had leftover ham from the packet and this was a good use for it! I didn’t have spring onion so I used cilantro.

Hi Lingxi. I’m glad you enjoyed this lazy dish. Cilantro is called coriander in Australia, and my family members are coriander haters. It tastes different to them. My husband says it tastes bitter like soap. But I enjoy coriander. I have just started growing coriander in a pot, so I can enjoy it any time.

Thanks for the recipe, it was really tasty and a perfect easy dinner for one! I don’t know if this Is sacrilege but I added about a teaspoon of sugar to the sauce and was glad I did

I am so happy to know you enjoyed this dish, Claire. I don’t know if this can be called a recipe. Mirin and Sugar add sweetness to the sauce and I love the sweetness, too.
