Tamago kake gohan
Tamago kake gohan (Japanese: 卵かけご飯, lit. 'egg on rice') is a popular Japanese breakfast food consisting of cooked Japanese rice topped or mixed with raw egg and soy sauce.
Background
Tamago kake gohan is a dish in which a raw egg is put on top of or mixed with rice, or a recipe for such a dish.[1] Beaten eggs are sometimes used, as are non-beaten. Sometimes only the yolk of the egg is used.
The dish is known in Japan as "tamago kake gohan" (gohan meaning rice or food, and kake meaning splashed or dashed), "tamago kake meshi" (meshi meaning rice or food), "tamago gohan", or simply "tamago kake". Tamago (egg) may be written 玉子 (cooked egg), as an alternative to the single character 卵 (raw egg).
Method of preparation
A raw egg is mixed in a bowl of rice. The rice may be cold, recently cooked, or reheated; the egg may be broken directly into the rice bowl (before or after the rice), or beaten in a separate bowl beforehand. A depression in the rice may be made to pour the egg into.
