"Domburi"

For dinner yesterday I decided to make domburi for my mom and my friend Justine who is staying with us right now. My mom isn't a huge fan of rice so we got these great noodles from Lucky Supermarket to use instead. I also added a few extra things for fun. Here is the recipe.

Serves 4

4 cups hot, cooked rice
1 whole chicken breast
4 white mushrooms
3 scallions
4 eggs

Domburi ni Shiru:

1/4 cup dry sherry(I use rice vinegar)
1 tsp. sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 cup chicken or clam broth(I used chicken)

This is the text in the book:
"Domburi is the name for a large bowl with a lid, as well as the dishes served in it. A soup bowl is a good substitute...
Put a cup of rice into each of four domburi and keep it hot while you are preparing the toppings.
Skin and bone the chicken breast and shred the meat finely.
Slice the mushrooms thinly.
Trim the scallions and chop a few teaspoonfuls of green part for garnish.Shred the remainder.
Beat the eggs.
Mix the domburi ni shiru(sauce). Toss the chicken, mushrooms, and scallion in the domburi ni shiru.
In a heavy pan(we prefer non-stick for this)heat the chicken mixture to a boil. Stir for a minute or two until the chicken is becoming opaque, lower the heat to simmer, and stir in the beaten eggs. Stir quickly until the eggs are just barely set. Ladle one-fourth of the mixture over each of the bowls of hot rice. Garnish with the reserved chopped scallion."

I added fresh corn to the mixture and I also garnished it with green onions, BBQ'd pork, carrot and roasted peppers.

After I added the egg. I was in a bit of a rush so I didn't do it perfectly. There are little pieces of egg in there but that's OK. 


Finished product.
