my favourite meal of the day 2

I wanted to eat bread not rice this morning, but I wanted to have Nattō which is extremely nutritious-high in omega 3 fats, protein as well as a dozen vitamins and minerals.

So my breakfast this morning looked like this...

Avocado, Ham, Fried Egg on bread

and

Baked Natto on bread

I know that some who don't like natto went "ewwww" by this picture but some who like it, you should definitely try it.
You just need to toast a piece of bread first, mix natto with attached sauce and little bit of mayonnaise, put it on the bread and back to the oven. Add black pepper to finish.

Yummy!

Kimchi Puree

Thanks to my friend, Sophie, I got to know this amazing idea of "Kimchi Puree".
I'm not sure what how she makes it though, I decided to make my own.

Mama's Kimchi,
Mirin,
Sake,
Soy Sauce,
Sesame Oil,
Dashi (Fish Stock) Soup

1)
Grill Mackerel with skin side on the top first (about 7-10 mins), flip over and place Kimchi puree over the fish.

Grill them for 5 mins.

2)
Layer Sesme Seeds the put them back into the grill for 1 mins.






Also made Japanese omelette, and sweet egg plants with new onions for my obento.
