Ingredients
2 rice cooker cups uncooked Japanese short-grain rice
½ sweet onion
2 tsp rice bran oil
⅛ tsp SIDS SALT & PEPPER
SEASONINGS:--
2 tbsp mirin
1 tbsp soy sauce
Directions
Rinse rice until water is almost clear. Soak in water for 30 minutes. Drain in a fine-mesh sieve for 15 minutes.
Thinly slice the onion against the grain so the onion keeps the texture after cooked.
In a frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion and pinch of SIDS SALT & PEPPER and sauté onion until they are tender.
Add mirin and soy sauce then continue to sauté until the sauce is thickened.
Add the drained rice into the rice cooker and pour the sautéed onion including sauce.
Add the water up to “2 cup line” on the inner bowl and click start to cook. If you have a “Mixed Rice” option, use it (see Notes below).
When rice is finished cooking, chop mitsuba into small pieces and fluff up the rice with a rice scooper. Serve the rice and garnish with mitsuba.
To Serve: You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for a month.
