CLAYPOT RICE

This clay pot rice is a one pot rice meal. It has been quite some time since the last time I cook this dish. . Usually I would use a clay pot but instead of using a clay pot today, I used my non stick pan to prepared this dinner.

Good meal. "GOCHISO SAMADESHITA" (Thanks for the meal).
