There are numerous several types of donburi, a Japanese rice bowl topped with some mixture of meat and greens, together with gyudon (beef), katsudon (pork) and oyakodon (hen and egg). On this meat-free model, which was impressed by oyakodon, mushrooms and leeks simmer in a dashi-based sauce earlier than crushed eggs are poured over and cooked till custardy. The mixture of mushrooms and leeks is particularly satisfying as a result of it doubles down on the savory and candy distinction within the sauce, however vegetarian variations of oyakodon are additionally regularly made with cubed tofu or different thinly sliced greens and egg. To maintain it vegetarian, use fish-free dashi, which may be bought or made with dried shiitakes and kombu. (You’ll be able to add the rehydrated shiitakes to the mushroom combination.)
