Oyakodon
Oyakodon is a popular Japanese dish that consists of a rice bowl topped with chicken and eggs. The name "oyakodon" translates to "parent-and-child donburi," referring to the use of both chicken (the parent) and eggs (the child) in the dish. It is typically prepared by simmering chicken pieces with onions in a savory sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and dashi, before adding beaten eggs to create a soft, custard-like texture.
Served over a bed of steamed rice, oyakodon is a comforting and satisfying meal enjoyed by many. It is often garnished with green onions or shichimi togarashi for added flavor. This dish is not only popular in homes but is also commonly found in Japanese restaurants and food stalls, making it a staple of Japanese cuisine.
