Ingredients
- 1 cup brown rice
- 2 cups water
- 4 eggs
- 1 ½ tbsp soy
- 1 ½ tbsp neutral oil
- sesame oil and shichimi togarashi, to garnish
Instructions
1. Wash the brown rice once and drain thoroughly. Place brown rice and water together and cook in a rice cooker, or place on a small pot on the stove and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to the lowest heat, place a lid on and cook until all the water is absorbed. This should take around 40 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it stand for 5 minutes.
2. Whisk eggs together with soy and heat a non-stick or seasoned 25cm frypan with the oil. When hot, pour in the egg mix and using a spatula, stir the eggs bringing the outside to the centre several times. The eggs should be set around the sides and underneath but still retain some moisture on top.
3. Slide the eggs straight from the pan onto bowls of rice, drizzle with the sesame oil and give them a shake of togarashi. Add whatever vegetables or pickles you have around such as kimchi, fermented mushrooms, greens, broccoli or tamari toasted seeds and nuts.
