Mushroom Spinach Rice Bowl for One: Add the Next Ingredients When Liquid Reduces

Before cooking for one

Cooking just for yourself? Start with these amounts from the recipe's one-serving column. Check the full ingredient list below for the remaining ingredients and seasonings.

• Rice: 0.5 pack (210g per whole pack)
• Button mushrooms: 1 portion (divide a 150g pack into 3 portions)
• Spinach: 1 handful (loosely held in your hand)

Follow the recipe's preparation and cooking steps after measuring; package size is not the amount to use.

One portion of button mushrooms in this recipe is one-third of a 150g pack. It is not equivalent to one large mushroom. Wipe them dry and slice them 5mm thick. Rinse the spinach between the leaves and cut it into 4cm lengths. You will use half of a 210g pack of rice, so make sure not to serve the entire pack.

Ingredients for 1 serving

• Rice: 1/2 pack (210g per whole pack)
• Button mushrooms: 1 portion (divide a 150g pack into 3 portions)
• Spinach: 1 handful (loosely held in your hand)
• Garlic: 1 clove
• Olive oil: 1/2 household eating spoon
• Soy sauce: 1/2 household eating spoon

This is written using the ingredient list for 1 serving in the app. Household eating spoons and pinches are everyday measures and have not been converted to exact grams or milliliters. Check the package size and cup capacity shown in parentheses as well.

Method

• 1 step. Briefly rinse the mushrooms, pat them dry, and slice them 5mm thick. Trim the spinach roots and any wilted leaves, rinse between the leaves, and cut it into 4cm lengths. Finely chop the garlic.
• 2 step. Add the olive oil, garlic, and mushrooms to a pan and cook over medium-low heat for 4 minutes. They are ready when the mushroom edges are lightly browned and the liquid they released has reduced.
• 3 step. Stir the soy sauce into the mushrooms, then add the spinach. Cook over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Turn off the heat when the leaves and stems have softened.
• 4 step. Warm the rice according to the package instructions and serve only the amount listed in the ingredients. Top with the sautéed mushrooms and spinach and eat together.

If liquid pools in the pan

Watch to see whether the liquid released as the mushrooms cook is reducing. If you add the spinach right away, all the vegetables get wet at once, making it harder to tell how they are cooking. Once the mushroom edges are lightly browned, stir in the soy sauce and add the spinach. Cook until the leaves and stems have softened.

A rice bowl with separately prepared rice and vegetables

Warm the rice according to the product instructions, put it in a bowl, and top it with the sautéed vegetables. This is not a fried rice recipe in which the rice is added to the pan. Arrange the mushrooms and spinach so they are not all piled on one side, and check the seasoning as you eat them with the rice. Keep any additional sauce separate from the basic seasoning.

Full cooking steps

1 step. Briefly rinse the mushrooms, pat them dry, and slice them 5mm thick. Trim the spinach roots and any wilted leaves, rinse between the leaves, and cut it into 4cm lengths. Finely chop the garlic.

Check: The mushrooms for 1 serving are 150g from one pack, divided into three portions. The spinach is one loosely held handful; do not squeeze it tightly.

2 step. Add the olive oil, garlic, and mushrooms to a pan and cook over medium-low heat for 4 minutes. They are ready when the mushroom edges are lightly browned and the liquid they released has reduced.

Check: If the garlic turns dark brown, lower the heat. For 3–4 servings, cook the mushrooms in two batches so they do not sit in liquid.

3 step. Stir the soy sauce into the mushrooms, then add the spinach. Cook over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Turn off the heat when the leaves and stems have softened.

Check: Add the spinach at the end and do not cook it for too long. If the stems are still firm, cook for another 30 seconds at a time. Measure with the same household eating spoon you use at home. Level off the top of soy sauce or sugar; do not let liquids overflow. The amount differs from 1 tablespoon measured with a measuring spoon.

4 step. Warm the rice according to the package instructions and serve only the amount below. Top with the sautéed mushrooms and spinach and eat together.

Check: 1 serving is half of a 210g pack of cooked rice. It does not mean uncooked rice or a whole pack.
