Aya cooked today utilizing some leftover ingredients from throughout the week. It’s basically fried rice with ketchup, and is commonly referred to as “tomato rice.” She said making fried rice like this in Japan is pretty simple and common. Also that it’s kind of equivalent to how a grilled cheese and tomato soup dinner would be here in the states. Ellie loved it!
RECIPES:
Tomato Rice
She sauteed finely chopped onions, carrots and celery, then added chopped turkey sausage. Next she added cooked rice with peas and corn, then a scrambled egg. Mix altogether and then add ketch-up. Since there’s enough sodium in ketch-up, she said that’s all the seasoning she used. It was pretty flavorful too!
Wow! Instantly hungry… might need some soy sauce though! lol JK
