Ingredients
  

  • Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
  • 2 to 3 cups very hot cooked brown rice
  • 2 eggs
  • splashes of tamari
  • 1 scallions, finely chopped
  • sesame seeds, for sprinkling
  • optional toppings: extra egg yolks, thinly sliced nori, Japanese pickles or pickled ginger, micro greens, splash of rice vinegar or umeboshi vinegar, avocado slices, roasted broccoli

Instructions
 

  • Scoop the cooked brown rice among two bowls. While the rice is piping hot, add 1 egg per bowl along with splashes of tamari, and stir vigorously so that the egg gently cooks as it coats the rice, making the rice a creamy consistency.
  • Top each bowl with scallions, sesame seeds, and desired additional toppings. Serve with tamari on the side, for seasoning.
