It is known by now that Japanese cuisine offers much more than sushi. Fortunately, Japanese home cooking is also becoming more popular in this country. Soboro Don – rice with minced meat and poached egg – proves that it is not difficult to prepare. You’ll find out in this recipe how easy it is, but it still packs an incredible amount of flavor.
With Soboro Don you don’t need to bother peeling and chopping, because here we don’t need to use onion or garlic. However, doing without it doesn’t take away from the flavor. Thanks to the sake, mirin and soy sauces, a lot of aroma is added to the meat. By the way, all three sauces are part of the repertoire of Japanese ingredients – you can find more essential ingredients for Japanese food in our shopping list.
For the wow effect, we poach an egg, as the yolk gently melts on top of the minced meat. If you don’t want/can’t/etc. poach an egg, you can also prepare an omelet; most people do.
