I have been trying to find out the best method to cook tomato flavoured ‘Takikomigohan (rice that is cooked with ingredients and seasonings)’. After having made some errors, I know now that the easiest and the best way is using a good tomato pasta sauce. It already contains Olive Oil, Garlic, well cooked Onions, Herbs and the most importantly delicious Tomatoes. Using a rice cooker, it can be prepared so easily while you are cooking other dishes. As this ‘Tomato Pasta Sauce Takikomigohan’ goes so well with anything, it can be a great side dish.
