Recipes I've used in raising my 8 kids in Japan, dedicated to my youngest son who feared starvation if I died without writing them down. Here you'll find healthy, nutritious recipes on a shoestring budget - all with the inevitable influence of Japanese cooking. Thanks for stopping by!

Fried Rice
Heat in a frying pan:
1 T oil (olive, or a mix of olive)
Stir fry:
½-1 minced onion
2-5 cloves of minced garlic
200 gm minced chicken
When the chicken is almost completely cooked, add:
1 finely grated carrot
2-3 chopped shiitake mushrooms
1-2 C minced vegetables, such as cabbage, spinach, broccoli stalks, red peppers, etc. (Add the vegetables that take longer to cook first. Think about adding a variety of colors. If you need more color, add some green onions at the very end, after you mix in the rice.)
When vegetables are cooked, push them towards the edges of the pan, make a well in the center and cook:
2-3 scrambled eggs (mixed with ¼ t salt and ½ t sugar)
Add and mix in:
2-3 C cooked rice
Season with:
Salt and pepper
1 t sesame oil
If you are making more than this amount, you can just mix the cooked vegetables and meat with the cooked rice in a large mixing bowl. No need to cook the rice together with the vegetables in a frying pan.
