You may know this by now, but my boyfriend eats pretty much anything I put in his bento. But still, I usually try to put rice, veggie and meat or fish (protein) in his bento. I also try to save some time by cooking food that I can make a lot of and can be kept for a long time, and that’s why I use a lot of meatballs and hamburg. Soboro is a simple yet convenient meat recipe I often use. I didn’t really think soboro was anything special, but my boyfriend thought it was a very simple and useful food. As matter of a fact, I used soboro for “real rice cake” last night! It totally saved me.
Traditional soboro is made with ground chicken, but I usually use ground beef because I get left over ground beef when I make meatballs and hamburg. You can also make it with ground pork or even a can of tuna!
[How to make soboro]
- 1/2 lb of ground beef or pork or chicken, or *2 cans of tuna
- 2 tbs of soy sauce or *3 tbs if you’re using tuna
- 1 tbs of sugar or *2 tbs if you’re using tuna
- 1 tbs of cooking sake or white wine or *1 tbs of mayonnaise if you’re using tuna
