Made something #1

I got hungry all of a sudden so I went up to the kitchen for something to eat (Yes, our kitchen is upstairs). I was craving for tuna and just my luck, there was only one an of tuna left in the pantry. (I wrote a notice saying that we ran out of tuna BTW). So as I was cooking the tuna, an idea sprouted in my head for recipe. So basically while I was cooking, I just kept putting whatever gets in my head. So here's the recipe:


Tuna-Don

1 can tuna
1/2 onion
1-2 cloves of galic
1 tbsp soy sauce

steamed rice

1 egg
10 drops of soysauce
pinch of salt and pepper

First prepare the tuna mixture:

  1. Drain the tuna from can and mash it a little so you get even parts.
  2. Cut the garlic and onions. For the onions, do it length wise and proceed to chop it into bits if you wish but I would prefer the lengthwise cuts.
  3. Heat up the skillet with a tbsp spoon of oil. Add in the garlic. Don't forget to smell the aroma.
  4. Add in the onions and caramelize them. be sure not to burn them!
  5. Proceed to add the tuna and mix it in. Add in the soy sauce about 2 mins after the tuna landed.
  6. After about 2 more mins. has passed, turn of the heat and let it cool for a while.

Next the egg:

  1. Beat the egg and add in the pinches of salt and pepper.
  2. Add in the 10 exact drops of soy sauce.
  3. Cook the egg like a scrambled egg style.
Preparation:

  1. Get a donburi bowl (they have loads in Japan Home Center of in Daiso)
  2. Put in the rice and make sure that the rice is flat.
  3. Put the egg on top of the rice.
  4. Put the tuna mixture on top of the egg.
Last Tip: If you want you can add a little ginger powder, a bit of thyme leaves or some oregano.

Happy Eating.
