Unagi and Tamagoyaki Sushi Rice Bowl

This is my youngest nephew Eu-Xin absolutely favorite thing to eat. Each time he steps into a Sushi place of Japanese restaurant he will order this. He will be very happy if he get to eat this. I have to make it a point to prepare this for him when I go home. Making this rice bowl is so easy. You can find vacuumed packed pre-cooked unagi at the Asian store frozen section. All you have to do is take it out, bake or broil and serve it with some sushi rice. We will usually have this with some avocado or steamed broccoli but since I don’t have any in hand I just made some Tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet) to go with it.




There is no recipe here as this is so easy to make. Just warm up the unagi according to the package instructions. As for the Tamagoyaki, please refer to the recipe and step by step instructions here . If you want something simple, you can always serve it with some steamed vegetables, avocado or some julienne egg omelet.


To serve, put some rice on a bowl, top it with sliced unagi, Tamagoyaki and sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds. Bon Appétit!!
