Recipe Instructions

Japanese-Style Surf ’n’ Turf with Furikake Butter - Step #1 Cook the rice
Step 1: Cook the rice
Place 3 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) in a small bowl and leave at room temperature to soften. In a medium pot, combine the rice, 1 ½ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 14 to 16 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Add ½ the vinegar, ⅓ of the mild furikake and S&P. Fluff and keep warm.

Meanwhile, cut the eggplant into ½ inch rounds. Remove the root ends of the bok choy; halve lengthwise (quarter if large). Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and green tops. In a large bowl, season the vegetables by combining the eggplant, bok choy, a drizzle of oil and S&P. To the bowl of softened butter, add ½ the miso, ½ the honey, ½ the white bottoms of the scallions and ½ the remaining mild furikake; stir well.

Transfer to a cutting board, leaving any browned bits in the pan, if using. Reserve the grill pan, if using. Cover and let rest for at least 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
