Ever since buying a cheap donburi pot at a 100-yen store, we've been preparing this dish this way.

Don't beat the eggs too much, just beat it lightly until there is still some trace of the white. The key to a soft-set finish is to pour in the egg in two batches. You could mushrooms too. Adjust the flavoring ingredients to your taste. Recipe by Muuny
