Preparation
Step 1
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.
Step 2
Top each bowl with scallions, sesame seeds, and desired additional toppings. Serve with tamari on the side, for seasoning.
Step 3

Chef's notes
You can top your rice bowl however you like! Starting with scallions, sesame seeds, and nori or furikake is recommended.
For vegetables, roasted broccoli or a few micro greens can be added.
Pickled ginger is a common choice for pickles.
Avocado slices can add richness to the bowl.
A splash of rice vinegar or ume vinegar is optional for tanginess.
