“Oyako”（親å）means “parent and children” and Don comes from the word “DonBuriâ€ï¼ˆä¸¼ï¼‰means rice bowl. Oyako Don is a Japanese dish which chicken, egg, green onion and other ingredients are all simmered together in a sauce and then served on top of a large bowl of rice. It is one of easy-to-do japanese recipe and the ingredients are easy to get so I recommend this menu. The name of the dish, parent and child donburi, is a poetic reflection of the fact that both chicken and egg are used in the dish. I always like to cook this meaningful Japanese dish whenever there is a gathering party with friends and family. Let’s try enjoy this meaningful japanese recipe with your freinds and family!!
