Ma Po Tofu(麻婆豆腐）

Egg plant season has come ! Put a lot of Chinese pepper (山椒) rather than red chili for flavor.

 

Chichen Egg Rice Bowl(親子丼）

This is a typical homey Japanese dish. Boil chicken with sliced onion, soy sauce, sake, and suger, and finish it with beaten egg. After putting egg, turn off the heat, and put lid on it so that egg does not get so hard. Usually, served with Mitsuba leaf (some sort of Japanese herb).

Cucumber Slice

 Roasted chicken (as usual in toaster oven with a lots of good olive oil & Garlic) with apricot sauce. Served with colored green and summer squash saute.

Eggplant and Fried Tofu (なすと揚げだし豆腐)

Typical Japanese meal for one nice Sunday branch !
I roast whole egg plants in toaster oven, and left them overnight so that next day I can peel the skin easily. Then marinate them in soy sauce, suger, vinegar, and a bit of red chilli.
Tofu (Atsuage) was purchased, but you can deep fly tofu by your self to make Atsu-age ("thick fry"), and serve it with egg plants.
