Hi everyone, I am Masa
This time, I want to introduce everyone to a very delicious
Japanese styled spaghetti
Japanese styled meals are not confined to soy sauce and mirin
dairy products are very suitable as well
This time we will be using heavy cream
It will have a rich and creamy taste without being too oily
a very refreshing spaghetti
it is very easy to make
let us start!
soy sauce and heavy cream
the combination of these two
it is very suitable to add in mushrooms
everyone can use their preferred mushroom type
Shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms
any other kinds of mushrooms will be suitable
1/8 of an onion
slice thinly
a clove of garlic
if you want to make it spicy
you can also add a little bit of chili
1 chicken thigh
this time I am using chicken thighs
you can change it to pork
or shrimp
dice into eatable chunks
add in a little bit of oil
turn on medium heat
preheat
put the chicken skin facing down
add some salt and black pepper
pan fried until golden brown
whenever I cook these kinds of cuisine,
I like to fried the proteins first until aromatic
and take them out of the pan right after
this way, it can keep them tender
take them out to prevent from being overcooked
onion
garlic
pan fry until semi-transparent
oyster mushroom
fry until golden brown
you can adjust the liquidness of sauce anytime (using water)
2 spoonful of water
adjust the water level for a richer or watery sauce
heavy cream 200 cc
cooking sake - 1 spoonful
mirin- 1 spoonful
soy sauce - 1 spoonful
Because the sauce making process is not difficult
the heating up process has two parts
if you are familiar with cooking spaghetti
you can start cooking the spaghetti first
then make the sauce
if you want to take it slowly
you can prepare the sauce first, then cook the spaghetti
add salt to boiling water
spaghetti- 130g
I have introduced this method before
turn the heat on low first
twist the spaghetti
place them into the pot
but do not let go of them
slightly press them into the pot before letting go the spaghetti
so the spaghetti
would not stick out of the pot
and get burnt
turn to medium heat
we can reduce the spaghetti cooking time by a little bit
cook for about 5-6 minutes
place the spaghetti into the sauce and continue to cook it
place the noodles into the sauce
cook until the preferred doneness
if there is not enough water in the sauce
you can add in some spaghetti water into the sauce
or add in more heavy cream
if you want a richer, creamier taste,
you can also add in some shredded cheese
do not cook for too long after putting in the chicken
you can quickly heat it before turning off the stove
you can replace green onions
with thinly sliced perilla
or with sliced seaweed
Okay! we now have a very delicious plate of
Japanese styled creamy pasta
because the spaghetti was partially cooked in the sauce,
the noodles absorbed a lot of the flavor
if you do not have time to cook the spaghetti noodles
you can add the sauce onto rice for an easy baked rice
my bad...
the dish I introduced this time
once again is a high calorie dish
it would be more suitable to eat it during lunch
or an early dinner
anyways everyone should try this when they are free! Thank you!
