Description

A delicious Unagi rice bowl topped with sweet simmered eggs, avocado, and nori.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 cups rice (cooked)
  • 8 ounces unagi fillet
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • 1 tablespoon sake
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 avocado (sliced)
  • 1 sheet nori, torn into small pieces, for garnish
  • 1/4 cup chopped scallion for garnish
  • togarashi, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Place unagi on a lined baking sheet and cook in the oven for 5-8 minutes or until hot. Turn on the broiler and broil for 1 minute. Remove from oven and keep warm.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick sauté pan over medium heat. Whisk eggs and add soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar. Pour egg mixture into hot pan. Cover and let cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes. The eggs should still be wet but set. Remove from heat.
  4. Portion rice into 2 bowls and top with sweet simmered eggs and unagi. Finish with avocado slices, chopped scallions, and nori. Sprinkle togarashi on top if desired.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, you can add a splash of milk to the eggs before cooking.
  • Ensure the unagi is properly warmed to bring out its flavor.
