    That's what we (me and my friend) named "Akano Tanin Don" (Completely stranger Donburi, Donburi is a dish something on Hotrice in Big bowl). Akano Tanin Don is made of Egg and canned Tuna. We have real japanese Dish called Oyako Don (means parent and child Don) that is made of chiken and egg. Chiken is a parent of Egg, that's Y we call it Oyako Don. Also we have "Tanin Don" (stranger Donburi) that is made of Beef and Egg. It's strangers each other, so we cal it Tanin Don. and the one I sited the pix is made of Tuna and Egg, they are sooo different. so we named it Akano Tanin Don means completely stranger Donburi.

    Ok, now the recipe.
    1. put water, japanese fish soup stock (we call it Dashi, powdered one is easy), Soysause, Japanese Sake, Mirin (sweet Sake) and little bit of sugar and cook it untill it gets boiled.
    2. put sliced onion into the soup.
    3. after the onion is cooked, you put canned tuna.
    3. In the end, you put tossed eggs, cover the pan and leave it for a while. Once the egg is cooked may be 80% then, you turn off the gas.
    4. put it on the hot rice.

    Thanks for your recipe. Out here where I live hardly have good homemade Japanese food. It's always raw fish slices, tempura, and sushi. I bought 2 big packs of Dashi. I only used a little portion to make dashi soup and simmered with orange pumkins (green skin). It tastes light and not fattening. I also got thick dry seaweed like a towel (black color). I used it for soup which tastes and smells very Japanese. I am not used to cooking with those very much. I will try and eat light, healthy and loose some weight. I'd better watch my salt intake. Good recipes.

    You are so lucky to work and live like a traditional Japanese life. Not everyone has the opportunity. Learn and pass on to us non-japanese folks. Eager to see your new pictures and posts.

    Thanks star for checking my blog often,
    Ya I am lucky to live here. The best thing for me is tasty fresh veges and nice people and friends. All these are just around. I can cook something tasty with the veges and can share it with these people. (actually I don't need to put much seasonings when I cook these veges since these organic veges themselves taste sooo good already.)That's the blessing.
    I try more to site simple and healty japanese dish and share it with you.
    By the way It was funny that you said konbu (the huge dried seeweed) as black towel. hehe :-)

    Great you have new postings! You know what, I make a donburi dish. I followed your instruction with different veggie. I put onion slices, little ground pork, eggs and Japanese mushroom slices with dashi soup (from dry fish flakes) and sweet mirin . I put what whatever I have from the fridge.
    Next time, I can put different veggie to have different variations of the dish over hot steam rice.
    Taste very good! Thanks
