Kaisendon is a colorful rice bowl dish made with a variety of fresh seafood. In this post, I will teach you 3 different ways to enjoy Kaisen Donburi and make a delicious, sweet, savory dipping sauce!
Add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp light brown sugar, ½ tbsp sake, ½ tbsp mirin and 50 ml dashi stock to a small pan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool. Transfer to a small dipping bowl and add 1 tsp sesame oil and 1 tsp ground sesame seeds. Mix well.
Divide 2 portions cooked Japanese short-grain rice into bowls and top with 200 g seafood of your choice.
Garnish with shiso leaves, nori or chopped green onion.
Apply wasabi to the fish and dip each piece in the sauce before eating. Enjoy!
