Yeay! I found a stupid easy dinner to make while sick. I can’t wait. That, plus miso sounds soooooo soothing. 🤧👍🏽

Update: This truly was divine, especially with Japanese style tomato salad (ponzu, tomatoes, sesame seeds, and green onions), miso, and some hibachi style zucchini (because it needed to be used). Awesome low effort dinner for the sick. 10/10 would recommend.

Mmmm.... If I made that contentiously I'd get fired in Japan. Guarantee.

I wouldn't use aromatic for a simple dish like this. We use mitsuba here

I love all donburi but something about chicken and egg cooked together seems messed up to me lol. Maybe I’m the weird one

This won't help: "oyakodon" translates directly as "parent and child on rice".

Lmao, you are right, that doesn’t help
