No claypot chicken rice

No claypot chicken rice
Because our donabe (Japanese claypot) is too small to cook a meal for four, my chicken rice was cooked in a cast iron pan. Chinese sausage, mushrooms and bok choy complete the dish.
Cook time: 40 minutes minutes
Servings: 4 people

Claypot salmon and mushroom rice

Rice seasoned with sukiyaki sauce, shiitake and shimeji mushrooms, and fresh salmon cubes cook together in a claypot for a delicious meal. Excluding the soaking time for the dried shiitake, total cooking time, including prep, is 20 minutes.
Cook time: 15 minutes minutes
Servings: 2 people

Chorizo and pesto rice

Chorizo and pesto rice
Got leftover rice? Asian fried rice is good but chorizo and pesto and rice is equally delightful. Easier to make too with fewer ingredients to prep especially if you keep a jar of pesto in your fridge regularly.
Cook time: 7 minutes minutes
Servings: 1 person
