How to make Oyakodon - a simple Japanese chicken and egg rice bowl recipe
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Chef Dai demonstrates how to make "Oyakodon" - a simple yet delicious Japanese rice bowl recipe with tender, juicy nuggets of chicken and fluffy, creamy egg.
Ingredients:
Chicken Thigh x 1 (deboned and butterflied)
• Easy way to debone and...
small white onion x 1/2 small
Egg x 1
Dashi Stock x 5 Tbsp (alternatively use instant stock powder)
• How to make dashi / st...
Dark soy sauce x 1 Tbsp
Mirin x 1 Tbsp
Sugar x 1 Tbsp
Spring onion x 1
Steamed Rice x 1 bowl
Thinly cut Nori Seaweed (optional)
Mitsuba herb x 2 stalks, cut into 2cm pieces (optional)
Takuan pickles
Oyakodon (親子丼), literally means "parent-and-child rice bowl". This Japanese classic is a comforting rice bowl dish, in which pieces of chicken thigh, egg, sliced spring onions and white onions, and other ingredients are all simmered together in a sauce and then served on top of a large bowl of rice. The name of the dish is a poetic reflection of the fact that both chicken and egg are used in the dish.

Finally tried this today, loved it. I used chicken stock instead of dashi and an entire small onion to suit my tastes (worked really well!) and I'm definitely cooking it again :)

I just watched ALL of the recipes for this dish, and yours was DEFINITELY the best, and the easiest. To make it even faster (especially for a bachelor like me), I simply used Ebara Sukiyaki Sauce for the base, saving me even more time, while making a dish with the same consistency every time. Thank you for this marvelous recipe!!

I love Oyakodon and this recipe is a very, very good one. And so simple! Not mixing the egg to much was a great advice, I did that wrong up until now. :D I often take Chicken Breast instead of the thigh (it's cheaper and I love the little "dryness", haha xD). Or sometimes Beef for a Tanidon-like dish. Thanks for the Video! ^^

It's also part from his knife. Japanese style knives are not rounded like German style knives (the ones that we all know from cooking shows). The flat cutting edge makes it easier to slice rather than the chop.

I think it would be better if the chicken is stir-fried before adding the liquid. You will get more flavour. Stir-frying the chicken will brown the chicken and add caramelization from the Maillard effect. Once brown, adding the dashi, soy and mirin will deglaze the pan and infuse the liquid with flavour. If you do it as shown in the video, the chicken just boiled in the liquid.

I thought the same but actually the caramelised flavours interfere with the gentle seasoning of the dashi and mirin. A lot of Japanese recipes don't require browning meat for this reason. For example, I made a pork belly noodle dish twice, I fried the meat once with colour and once without. The flavour of the dish was much better without the caramelised pork flavours as it allowed all the seasonings and aromatics to come through. But to each their own.
put mayo. and you'll got oyakodon plus mago
