Vegetable Ricebowl with Lentils + Poached Egg with Tomatoes, Caramelized Onions, and Mustard
Y has a growing preference towards ricebowls, instead of the usual rice + vegetable/meat dish. For this ricebowl recipe, I added lentils (a high-protein high-fiber legume) to his usual veggie ricebowl. Adding mustard is optional, but Y found the tangy taste yummy!
1 cup of cooked rice (I used red rice here)
1/2 cup of lentils
Malunggay leaves
1/2 cup of carrots, finely chopped
Sesame oil
Sesame seeds
1 medium-sized egg
1/4 of an onion
1 tsp coco sugar
Fresh tomatoes, diced
Mustard (optional)

Ingredients
Ricebowl
1 cup of cooked rice (I used red rice here)
1/2 cup of lentils
Malunggay leaves
1/2 cup of carrots, finely chopped
Sesame oil
Sesame seeds
- Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, then add your lentils. Keep on high heat until the water boils, then bring down to medium-low heat, and let simmer for 20-30 minutes or until the lentils are soft and cooked.
- Coat a separate pan with sesame oil, and add your cooked rice, cooked lentils, and finely chopped carrots.
- Let the carrots cook for a few minutes, then add the malunggay leaves. Simmer for 1-2 minutes then remove from heat.
- Sprinkle some sesame seeds for added sesame flavor.
Poached Egg Mix
1 medium-sized egg
1/4 of an onion
1 tsp coco sugar
Fresh tomatoes, diced
Mustard (optional)
- Poach your egg over boiling water and remove it once you've reached your yolk-doneness preference. You may find a step-by-step procedure here.
- Lay your poached egg on top of the mixed veggie rice.
- On a separate pan, fry your onions over some oil, until it turns golden brown. Sprinkle the coco sugar over the onions until you get an even brown coating.
- Serve the caramelized onions, fresh tomatoes, and a squeeze of mustard around the poached egg.
