Kanpai Omurice | Japanese Cooking Video Recipe

Kanpai or Kampai (乾杯) means "cheers" in Japanese!


Quite some time ago, I made a funny Omurice, if you remember! Those fingers are sausages! I drew nails and the beer foam using mayonnaise. Simple yet entertaining!

Omurice is a fried rice wrapped with thin omelette. Usually, the rice is chicken rice (seasoned with ketchup) but you can use any kind of flavored rice (leftover is perfect!): Chinese-style fried rice, pilaf, Paella, etc…


In my tutorial, I used Chinese-style fried rice!

It can be a great father's day menu idea or a dish to surprise your partner ;D

Kanpai Omurice


Difficulty: Easy
Time: 20min
Number of servings: 1

Ingredients:
8oz. (225g) flavored rice of your choice
1 egg
2.5 sausage
cooking oil
ketchup
mayonnaise

Directions:
1. Cut one sausage diagonally to look like your thumb. And chop the other two to look like the rest of your fingers.
2. Beat 1 or 2 eggs in a bowl. Heat cooking oil in a pan and make a thin omelette. If you don't have a rectangle omelette pan, you can make a circle thin omelette and cut it later.
3. Remove the omelette and cook sausages.
4. Cut the longer side of the omelette to make a thin strip.
5. Place the flavored rice of your choice on the plate and shape it like a mug.
6. Cover the rice with the thin omelette and make a handle with the thin strip.
7. Place the sausages to look like holding the mug.
8. Draw the fingernails and the beer foam with mayonnaise.
9. Write a message with ketchup!

My original recipe in Japanese is here.

Abnormal Weather in Japan

The rainy season has started in Japan. It was 20 days earlier than last year. We see rain marks on the weekly weather forecast in Tokyo X(



And another abnormal weather we have is that the typhoon #1 passed by the Japanese continent earlier this month which was the first time in the record. Also typhoon #2 is approaching this weekend… so that means the rain on the weekend would be severe. oh boy…



How is the weather in your country?!

Today we still don't have rain yet! I'm glad it starts to rain from late in the evening because I have to go to work, which actually is going to be my very last day!

Have a good weekend!!!

YouTube Medal?!

Yesterday, I saw a gold medal on my YouTube channel "temporarily". LoL



I hope it is not the first and last time to see it. (It always displays in Japanese and can't change the language in my account, maybe because I live in Japan, but do you see my profile in English?!)

I'm not yet pretty sure how the YouTube works. It seems like I need to upload more videos to generate more traffic, but so far, I am happy to hear that my blog buddies enjoy my videos :D

I'm glad I came up to this idea to create videos.

I want to best use my time, while young and vital. hahaha. But one happy thing other than my age is that I used a weight scale that you can measure inside of the body, and my age was 23!!! Amazing huh?!

BTW, yesterday, my darling's research report was quoted on the Yahoo article! Sorry, it's in Japanese, but I'm happy with it ;D
