Top 5 dishes made from Sugar *optional, only if you like sweeter flavour
1 . Mackerel & Egg Rice Bowl
Mackerel & Egg Rice Bowl
I cook this Rice Bowl dish very often using a variety of ingredients, but today I used 1 small can of Mackerel. As you don’t need to cook canned Mackerel, you just warm it up in the sauce, then bind the Mackerel and Spring Onion with Egg. You can use other canned Fish, but this one with Mackerel is absolutely yummy as Mackerel is my favourite fish.
Ingredient
1 can (125 g)
Mackerel in Brine
1/2 teaspoon
grated Ginger
1 tablespoon
Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon
Mirin
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Drain the Canned Mackerel and discard the brine. Break into bite-size pieces.
* Step 2
Place Water, Dashi Powder, Soy Sauce and Mirin (and Sugar) in a small frying pan (18-20cm) OR saucepan, and bring to the boil over medium heat. Add Mackerel and Spring Onion, and bring back to the boil.
* Step 3
Pour the lightly whisked Egg over but DO NOT stir. Cover with a lid and cook until the Egg is softly set.
* Step 4
Half fill a bowl with warm Cooked Rice, cover it with the mixture, and enjoy. *Note: I sprinkled with some Shichimi (Japanese Chilli Spice Mix).

2 . Fish Balls & Egg Rice Bowl
Fish Balls & Egg Rice Bowl
I have shared quite a few dishes similar to this dish. You cook ingredients in Dashi Stock seasoned with Mirin and Soy Sauce, sometimes with Sugar for extra sweetness, then bind the ingredients with Egg. In the region I grew up, Fishcakes such as ‘Kamaboko’ OR ‘Chikuwa’, that are made from Surimi (fish paste), are often used for this type of dish. Those Japanese Fishcakes are hard to find for most of us. I used Fishballs today.
Ingredient
1/4 cup
Water
1/8 teaspoon
Dashi Powder *OR other instant stock powder
1 tablespoon
Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon
Mirin
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Place Water, Dashi Powder, Soy Sauce and Mirin (and Sugar) in a small frying pan (18-20cm) OR saucepan, and bring to the boil. Add Spring Onion and Fish Balls, and bring back to the boil.
* Step 2
Pour the lightly whisked Egg over but DO NOT stir. Cover with a lid and cook until the Egg is softly set.
* Step 3
Half fill a bowl with warm Cooked Rice, cover it with the mixture, and enjoy. *Note: Sprinkle with some Shichimi (Japanese Chilli Spice Mix) if you have it.
