"Make Your Bed!" (Quail Eggs, Avocado, Cucumber, Rice, Sauce)
Sushi without the Fish!?? Maybe! Thinking on my own, trying to come up with new ways for Quail Egg dishes, as I was blessed with an abundance of Quail Eggs as a gift from my lovely neighbor. This turned out very pleasing and I hope your family may enjoy as well as mine does!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Boil Quail Eggs in salted water at a rolling boil for 6-7minutes, remove from heat, drain and place pan of eggs under cold running water til eggs are cold (several minutes)
- 2
To a saucepan, add 1/2c soy sauce, 1/2c Honey, 2Tbs Orange Marmalade, juice squeezed from 1/2 Lemon, up to 3Tbs each:Garlic Powder, Curry Powder, Ginger Powder, few shakes of Crushed Red Pepper. Bring to rolling boil for 2-3min, reduce heat and simmer at low boil, stirring often, til sauce is reduced, somewhat thickened. (5+min.) Remove from heat and allow to cool. (This thickens a tad more when completely cool)
- 3
In a separate pot/pan, boil 1c of dried rice in 2 1/2-3c of salted water. To this boil, add 1Tbs each of Garlic and Onion Powders. Bring the rice to rolling boil 5min, then cover, reduce heat for gentle boil/simmer for 10-15min, or until desired softness.
- 4
Carefully peel the shell from Quail Eggs, discarding shells and adding eggs to cooled sauce.
- 5
Peel, Halve, and Remove the seed from both Avocados.
You may choose to remove a thin straight slice from the round part (bottom of the halve) caring not too slice too deep, into the well of the avocado. Trimming a flat strip from the bottom will better help the avocado to sit flat.
- 6
Cut cucumber in half. Using one half, thinly slice lengthwise for several slices.
- 7
With a measuring cup, pack 1c of cooked rice. Turn the measuring cup upside down and allow rice to make a bed on the plate. Be sure to sprinkle bed of Rice with Paprika.
- 8
Atop the Paprika-Sprinkled Rice, add a thin slice (or 2!) of the cucumber, press down to make the rice a bed or somewhat bowl and top with halved Avocado and 2 Quail Eggs.
- 9
Generously sprinkle more Paprika over entire dish, and spoon Sauce atop the eggs and rice, adding more sparingly to the plate. When eating, I suggest halving each egg to have with cucumber, avocado and rice with sauce in each bite! Use the sauce on the plate for each bite of remaining rice! Enjoy!

🌟 Optional: you may find yourself enjoying a super thin slice or crumble of cream cheese with each bite of this dish!

Sauce Katsu Rice Bowl Sauce Katsu Rice Bowl
Ever since I had a delicious sauced katsu-don at a highway stop restaurant when I was visiting my parents, I've been going to the same restaurant every time I go home, so I tried re-creating it. (Although it doesn't really live up to the original...)It is easier to eat if you alternate the fatty sides of the pork roast slices as you layer them, so that the fat does not end up in one lump. The number of slices will depend on the thickness, so adjust accordingly. I used 3 pieces for my husband and 2 for myself. Layered sliced pork is more tender and easier to eat. You can also sandwich sliced cheese for a change. Of course, you can use store bought tonkatsu if you like! For 2 servings. Recipe by Suirin -

You Especially Want To Eat These If You Live Overseas! Soy Sauce Rice Crackers You Especially Want To Eat These If You Live Overseas! Soy Sauce Rice Crackers
The rice crackers my family brings me from Japan are delicious, but I still want to eat rice crackers in between their visits... We can buy them out here, but they're expensive. I referred to several sites to come up with this. The last microwaving step idea came from the fact that Chinese shrimp crackers can be cooked that way...and it worked.I used generic rice flour which is easier to get overseas, rather than joshinko rice flour. It absorbs water differently from joshinko flour I think.Be sure to do Step 9. Brush the sauce on 2 to 3 times until the crackers are as flavored as you want them to be. Recipe by Mon*chou-chou* -
Authentic Pork Rice Bowl with Sweet and Savory Sauce Authentic Pork Rice Bowl with Sweet and Savory Sauce
My husband is from Hokkaido. When his parents came for a visit, we wanted to serve them pork donburi rice bowls, but we were out of our favorite Tokachi pork donburi rice bowl sauce! So, we made it from ingredients we had on hand. The sweet and salty sauce turned out delicious and we were totally satisfied.There are many restaurants that use thick pork loin, so it's okay to use that instead. I prefer the juiciness of thinly sliced pork belly. When adding the pork to the sauce, stir lightly while it simmers to keep the pork tender; if the heat is too strong, the pork will become tough. Add as much onion as you like. Recipe by Hachan mama -

I wanted to create a simple rice bowl with vegetables loaded with calcium, vitamin C, and beta-carotene.If using pork belly in Step 2, you may not need to add any oil. Add only if needed. Komatsuna has vitamin C but since it's destroyed when heated, try to shorten the cooking time to the extent possible. Recipe by Kenkunno mama -
Meat Sauce Over Fried Rice Meat Sauce Over Fried Rice
I made this recipe as a way for my kids to eat the vegetables that they normally wouldn't eat served individually.I used meat sauce made in advance. This can be easily made with store-bought sauce, so it's handy for times when you need a quick lunch. Stir frying the vegetables and the rice together, then placing the meat sauce on top prevents the dish from becoming too pasty. Recipe by Yupun -
