Egg And Meat Soboro Obentou

Bringing a lunch box at work is common here in Japan. Ever since I got married, I' ve been making lunch boxes for my husband and though they' re not the ' traditional japanese style lunch box ', nor a ' character lunch box ' , I see to it that it is quick, easy, and reasonable to the budget. I' m usually preparing/ cutting the ingredients being used for the next day at night for time cutting next morning. Sprinkled into rice, folding into other things like eggs, pickles and more. Sometimes I cook for large amount and freezing them for future use. Eating packed lunches can help us save money. Above all else, my other way of showing love and effort for my husband by waking up early in the morning and preparing his lunch box. ^_^

As the egg cooks, it will start to turn grainy. Continue mixing. Stop heat then set aside.
