Grilled Rice Ball in Soup (焼きおにぎりスープごはん)

A perfect quick lunch menu.  You can enjoy it the soup itself but I strongly recommend it with grilled onigiri and an Onsen Tamago.

Ingredients

(for 2 servings)

• 240 g  Japanese mustard spinach (otherwise spinach)
• 40 g  carrot
• 150 g  mushrooms
• 1/2 tsp  dashi powder
• 2 cups  water
• Sesame oil for seasoning
• Salt for seasoning
• Black pepper for seasoning
• 1 grilled onigiri (See this page for the recipe.)
• 1 Onsen Tamago (See this page for the recipe.)

Instructions

1. Prepare the vegetable soup. Slice the mushrooms. Cut the mustard spinach into bite-size length. Cut the carrot into rectangular slices.
2. Prepare a saucepan and heat the water until it comes to a boil.
3. Add the dashi powder, mustard spinach stalks, mushrooms and the carrot. Heat it over medium-high heat.
4. Add the mustard spinach leaves until they are cooked.
5. Season with the sesame oil and the black pepper.
6. Serve the soup in a bowl. Place the grilled onigiri and an Onsen Tamago.
