Japan's Viral Rice Cooker Recipe | Salmon & Mushroom Takikomi Gohan

Hi! I’m Samy, a 31-year-old office worker living in Tokyo, Japan 😊 Today I made one of my favorite lazy Japanese meals — Takikomi Gohan 🍚✨ Just throw everything into the rice cooker and press start. That’s it. Salmon, mushrooms, soy sauce, sake, mirin… the rice cooker does all the work while you relax 😌 It’s cheap, easy, filling, and honestly SO good. Perfect for busy weeknights or days when you’re just too tired to cook. 🍚 Ingredients • 2 cups rice • Water (slightly less than usual) • 2 pieces fresh salmon (boneless) • 1 pack shimeji mushrooms • 2 tbsp soy sauce • 2 tbsp sake • 2 tbsp mirin 💡 Tips • If using salted salmon, reduce the soy sauce • Add butter at the end for a richer, Western-style twist 🧈 • Swap shimeji for enoki or maitake mushrooms — all work great! ▼ More lazy Japanese meals coming soon — Subscribe so you don’t miss them! #japanesefood #ricecooker #takikimigohan #japanesecooking #easyrecipe #japanfood #cookinginjapan #japanvlog #lazymeal #salmonrice #japanvlog #lifeinjapan #livinginjapan
