TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: Takikomi Gohan is seasoned steamed rice with meat and vegetables. It’s also called Gomoku Gohan ( 5 ingredients rice ).
One of the easiest ways to include more vegetables in your diet is to add vegetables in your rice. When your main course is a simple dish such as grilled fish, Japanese Mixed Rice or Takikomi Gohan (炊き込みご飯) brings up more flavors and varieties to the meal.
Depending on where you are/live in Japan, this dish might be called Kayaku Gohan (かやくご飯) or Gomoku Gohan (五目ご飯 – a 5-ingredient mixed rice, which is loosely translated because there are roughly five ingredients).
There is also a very similar dish called Maze Gohan (混ぜご飯). Unlike Takikomi Gohan where uncooked rice and other ingredients are cooked in the same pot, Maze Gohan is the cooked rice mixed with cooked and seasoned ingredients.
