Sushi Rice Base (Donburi Style)

Mayumi starts with hot Japanese rice and turns it into simple sushi rice for the base of the bowl.

Hot cooked rice (gohan)
Seasoned rice vinegar (or rice vinegar + sugar)

Method:

1. While the rice is still hot, gently fold in seasoned rice vinegar.
2. Let it sit so the vinegar absorbs and the rice cools slightly.
3. Taste and adjust – you want lightly seasoned, slightly sweet‑tangy rice.

Good sushi starts with good sushi rice, even for a quick home donburi.

Maguro (Tuna) – Cooked Donburi Style

Instead of raw sashimi, Mayumi uses tuna that is cooked and seasoned for a comforting rice bowl.

Important note from Mayumi:
Only eat fish raw if it is clearly labeled “sashimi grade.” If it’s not sashimi grade, cook it.

Fresh tuna (maguro), not sashimi grade, cut into bite‑size pieces
Neutral oil
A splash of sake or white wine
Dashi or noodle‑soup style seasoning (or similar Japanese soup base)
Sugar (a little)
Soy sauce
Bonito flakes (katsuobushi)

Method:

1. Cut tuna into small, easy‑to‑eat pieces.
2. In a pan with a little oil, quickly cook the tuna over medium heat.
3. Add a splash of sake or white wine to remove any smell and add flavor.
4. Season with noodle‑soup base, a little sugar, and soy sauce.
5. Stir in moistened bonito flakes to bring in deep Japanese umami.
6. Cook just until the tuna is done but still tender – don’t overcook or it will get tough.

This becomes the main topping for the rice bowl.

Vegetables & Toppings

Mayumi layers color and texture with simple veggies and classic Japanese pantry items.

Veggies (cooked):

Onion, thinly sliced
Carrot (ninjin), cut into very thin matchsticks

Method:

Sauté onion in a little oil until lightly caramelized and sweet.
Add carrot and cook until just tender.
Season lightly (the tuna and sauces carry most of the flavor).

Tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled egg):

Eggs
Sugar
A little water
A splash of soy sauce

Method (simplified):

1. Beat eggs with sugar, water, and soy sauce.
2. In a small pan (square tamagoyaki pan if you have it), cook a thin layer of egg over low heat.
3. Roll it up, push to one side, add more egg, and repeat to build layers.
4. Aim for a soft yellow color, not browned.
5. Let cool slightly, then slice into neat pieces for topping.

Fresh toppings:

Avocado slices
Green onion (thinly sliced)
Nori (seaweed), cut into thin strips
Crispy fried onions (optional but highly recommended)
Ponzu sauce for finishing

Assembling the Maguro Donburi

1. Add a layer of sushi rice to your donburi bowl.
2. (Optional) Add some Korean seaweed under or over the rice for extra flavor.
3. Spoon the cooked tuna mixture over the rice as the main topping.
4. Scatter the sautéed onion and carrot around the bowl.
5. Add slices of tamagoyaki on top.
6. Add avocado slices.
7. Sprinkle with green onion, nori strips, and crispy fried onions.
8. Finish with a drizzle of ponzu over the top right before eating.

Every bite has sushi rice, savory tuna, sweet egg, vegetables, and bright ponzu – like a cozy, cooked version of a tuna sushi bowl.
