Sweet & Savory Onion Simmer Sauce- 1/4 onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp sugar
- 2 Tbsp mirin (sweet rice wine)

- 1/4 onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp sugar

- 3 Tbsp water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
[Making the Delicious Onion Simmer Sauce] 🍳First, in a pan, combine the thinly sliced 1/4 onion, 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 Tbsp sugar, 2 Tbsp mirin, and 3 Tbsp water. Over medium-low heat, simmer until the onions are translucent and the sauce has thickened slightly. It’s important to stir occasionally to prevent burning. Let the prepared sauce cool down slightly.
Step 2
[Preparing the Avocado Smoothly] 🥑Use a ripe avocado. First, cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Peel the skin thinly, much like peeling an apple. If the avocado is very ripe, you can also peel it by hand. (If your avocado is slightly underripe, you can use the microwave in the next step after peeling.)
Step 3
[Enhancing Avocado Flavor] ✨Slice the peeled avocado thinly into bite-sized pieces. Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt over the sliced avocado for seasoning. If you’re using an underripe avocado or want to eat it immediately, microwave it for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. This will make the avocado softer and ready to eat. (Caution: Consuming underripe avocado without cooking can cause stomach upset, so please follow this step!)
Step 4
[Preparing Smoked Salmon] 🐟If using frozen smoked salmon, thaw it by immersing the vacuum-sealed package in cold water. Once thawed, cut the 80g of smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces. Using fresh smoked salmon will result in an even more delicious dish.
Step 5
[Preparing Green Onions] 🌿Wash the green onions for garnish, pat them dry, and chop them finely. They will add fragrance and color to the rice bowl.
Step 6
[Making a Nutritious Soft-Boiled Egg] 🥚Season the egg with a pinch of salt and black pepper. In a pot of boiling water, carefully lower the egg. Boil for about 6-7 minutes to achieve a soft-boiled consistency. Immediately transfer the boiled egg to cold water to cool down before peeling.
Step 7
[Completing Your Gorgeous Rice Bowl] 🍽️Start by placing the warm cooked rice in a serving bowl. Spread the prepared sweet and savory onion simmer sauce evenly over the rice. Arrange the sliced avocado and smoked salmon attractively on top. Finally, place the soft-boiled egg in the center and sprinkle with the chopped green onions. Your nutritious Avocado Smoked Salmon Rice Bowl is complete! Enjoy your meal!
