Step by step
Method
5 steps- 01
Stir the miso with warm water and soy sauce until smooth; keep it beside the stove.
- 02
Heat sesame oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms in one layer and leave untouched for 2 minutes so they brown.
- 03
Stir in the white parts of the spring onions, then add the rice. Break up clumps and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the grains are hot and lightly crisp.
- 04
Lower the heat. Fold in spinach and the miso mixture, tossing only until the leaves wilt and every grain is seasoned.
- 05
Divide between bowls and finish with spring-onion greens, sesame seeds and chilli flakes.
Cook's notes
Make it excellent
- Add miso after lowering the heat; prolonged boiling dulls its delicate savoury flavour.
