Unadon with unagi kabayaki
Unadon is one of the most straightforward Japanese bowls: hot rice and sweet-and-salty unagi kabayaki, with no unnecessary garnishes.
Instructions
-
Wash and soak the rice ⏱ 20 min
Rinse the rice in several changes of water, until the water stays almost clear. Cover it with cold water, let it soak, then drain it well.
-
Cook the rice ⏱ 12 min
Put the rice with 360 ml water in a saucepan with a lid. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cook without lifting the lid.
-
Let the rice rest ⏱ 10 min
Turn off the heat and leave the rice covered. The residual steam finishes the cooking and evens out the texture of the grains.
-
Heat the unagi ⏱ 8 min
Cut the Unagi Kabayaki Fillet into portions. Put it on a tray, brush it with a little sauce and heat it at 180°C until glossy and it reaches at least 63°C.
-
Assemble the bowls
Fluff the rice and divide it into bowls. Lay the unagi on top, drizzle with a little sauce and scatter fine strips of nori and Sesame Mix.
Good to know
Unagi kabayaki is already cooked and glazed. The goal is to heat it without drying it out. Don't put too much sauce over the rice. If you use a fan oven, loosely cover the tray for the first part and uncover only for the finish.
