Tamago Kake Gohan

Japanese rice with raw egg

Tamago kake gohan - TKG for short - is one of the simplest and most loved Japanese breakfasts: hot rice with a raw egg and soy sauce.

The heat of the rice turns the egg silky and creamy; a splash of soy sauce and some spring onion are all it takes for a perfect comfort meal.
