Oyakodon

This popular Japanese one-bowl meal is quite satisfying, with teriyaki-sizzled chicken pieces laid over a bed of rice, seeped with the subtle aroma of dashi, soy and mirin. What pulls this all together are the beautiful ribbons of softly cooked egg poured all over it, and the sweet juices of onions. Now if you want to get it all over fast – about 20 mins to be exact, use the pan. But if you want to cook less and can afford more waiting time, let your rice cooker do it for you. For the latter, expect under two hours for marination and rice cooker action.
