Our family's omurice features rice seasoned with ground meat in a meat sauce style. It's richer and more flavorful than traditional chicken rice—absolutely delicious!
How this recipe came about:
I created this version when I only had ground meat on hand for omurice. Now, this is the only way we make it at home! Regular chicken rice just doesn't compare anymore (haha).

Steps

1

Finely chop the onion and green bell peppers.
2

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Sauté the garlic, ginger, and ground meat.
3

Once the meat is cooked through, add the onion and cook until softened. Then add the green bell peppers and sauté together.
4

Add the ketchup and tonkatsu sauce to the pan, reduce the heat to low, then add the water and chicken bouillon. Bring to a simmer.
5

Cook until most of the liquid evaporates, then increase the heat to high and add the rice. Stir-fry to combine.
6

Once the meat and rice are evenly mixed, season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture onto four plates.
7

Beat the eggs (2 per person) with milk (1 tablespoon per person), salt, and pepper.

Pour in one portion of the egg mixture. Quickly stir with chopsticks or a spatula to form a round omelet. Turn off the heat immediately!

Finish by drizzling with ketchup and sprinkling with basil or oregano, if you like. Enjoy!
