4.8 Average Rating

Created by Camellia Ling Aebischer, this tuna rice bowl is topped with silky soy-cured eggs that add richness and umami. With fresh tuna, fluffy rice and healthy veggie toppings, it’s a quick, nourishing bowl that’s as beautiful as it is satisfying.

Pro tip: We recommend making extra soy-cured eggs because you might find a few of them disappear along the way! It’s also good to taste test to find out whether they need a little more time marinating.

  1. Place a small pot of water on to boil. Once boiling, gently lower three eggs in and set a timer for seven minutes. After seven minutes, remove the eggs and place them in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking and cool.
  2. For the marinade, place all the ingredients into a small airtight container. Peel the eggs, then place them into the marinade. If they aren’t fully covered, place a little paper towel on top so that the marinade touches the surface of the egg and it soaks in evenly. Refrigerate overnight.
  3. The next day, remove the eggs, slice them in half, and set aside. For the tuna, place it in a small bowl along with the mayo and mix well.
  4. To serve, portion out steamed rice across four bowls. Top with tuna, some sliced avocado, cucumber and an egg. Serve with extra soy sauce to dress.
