Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp mirin
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1 spring onion (finely sliced)
- 1 tbsp Japanese furikake rice seasoning
- 1 cup white rice (cooked - leftover is best)
Instructions
- Cook the rice if you're making it now and keep warm. If you're using leftover rice, reheat in the microwave and keep warm.
- Beat the eggs together with the mirin, soy sauce, salt, pepper and 1 tsp of the sesame oil.
- Heat a small frying pan with the remaining sesame oil until just hot - not too hot, we don't want the egg to cook too quickly.
- Pour the eggs into the pan and leave for a few seconds before stirring. Stir until just set, but still wet then remove from the heat - it will continue cook in the pan.
- Make a bed of the warm rice and then slide the eggs over the rice. Lastly, sprinkle with the spring onion and Japanese rice seasoning and enjoy right away!
