Miso Mackerel Mixed Rice Recipe

by Cat Yeh

Meet the Miso Mackerel Mixed Rice or Takikomi Gohan or Gomoku Gohan (which translates to rice cooked with meats, vegetables and herbs or 5 ingredients rice.) This recipe is insanely easy and packs a crazy amount of umami from the Miso Mackerel and Hondashi.It’s also a great way to use up any items in the fridge, freezer or pantry for a quick weeknight meal. In this version I’ve simplified and adjusted the process that not much preparation is needed. You can however choose to fancy it up – the world is your oyster! By using a rice cooker a meal is only a button away.
