Ingredients

This video shows how to make a luxurious set meal using convenience store ingredients, starring Seven Premium Gold's 'Gold Hamburg Steak'. The side dishes include a quick shira-ae (tofu salad) made with silken tofu and frozen chopped spinach, and a simple miso soup with fried tofu and green onions. The Hamburg steak is topped with a fried egg cooked in butter and savory buttered corn made in the same pan. Served with rice carefully cooked in a clay pot, this complete set meal can be enjoyed for around 800 yen (approx. $6).

  • Prep
    • Microwave silken tofu in a paper-towel-lined bowl to drain. Use firm tofu to save time if preferred.
  • Heat control
    • For clay pot rice, heat on medium for 8 mins to boil, then simmer on low for 12 mins and steam.
  • Measuring
    • The secret to delicious rice is adding 200ml of water for every 150g of rice.
  • Seasoning
    • Use both shiro-dashi and mentsuyu for double umami. Shiro-dashi alone is Kansai-style; mentsuyu is Kanto-style.
  • Time-saving
    • Cut the aburaage directly into the pot with kitchen shears to save washing a cutting board.
  • Seasoning
    • Sauté corn in the leftover butter from the fried egg, then season with soy sauce and mirin.
  • Plating
    • Preheat the serving plate so the demi-glace sauce sizzles when poured, enhancing the dining experience.
  • Flavor twist
    • Serve the Hamburg steak with mayonnaise and shichimi torgarashi for a delicious flavor twist.

Tasting the Upgraded 'Gold Hamburg Steak'

The Seven Premium Gold 'Gold Hamburg Steak' I obtained is an upgraded, renewed version. Just by microwaving it, you can easily enjoy a rich, meaty, fluffy, and juicy Hamburg steak. In fact, in another timeline, I once ate mountains of this Hamburg steak trying to recreate it, going through endless trial and error. Eating a Hamburg steak while watching someone else's struggles makes it taste even better, so I hope you enjoy them together. Today, we'll make a luxurious set meal using convenience store ingredients, starring this amazing Hamburg steak. It's the perfect comforting reward for a tiring day.

Perfect Clay Pot Rice

The rice, an essential part of any Japanese set meal, is carefully cooked in a clay pot. The secret to delicious rice is adding about 200ml of water for every 150g of lightly washed rice. Honestly, a rice cooker or instant rice works just fine, but I like the ritual of cooking at least one dish over an open flame. Thinking back to the Paleolithic era when humans first gathered around fires, I place it on the gas stove. Heat over medium for about 8 minutes until boiling, then simmer on low for 12 minutes and let it steam. You'll get perfectly fluffy, glossy rice. The white steam and sweet aroma when you open the lid are incredibly appetizing.

Easy Tofu Salad (Shira-ae)

For the side dish, we'll make 'shira-ae' (mashed tofu salad), which has its roots in Edo-period Buddhist vegetarian cuisine. Place silken tofu in a paper-towel-lined bowl and microwave to drain. If that feels like too much work, firm tofu is a great shortcut. Add microwaved chopped spinach, shredded nori, and sesame seeds, then season with shiro-dashi and mentsuyu. Shiro-dashi gives it a Kansai-style flavor, while mentsuyu leans Kanto-style. Using both creates a double-umami punch. Mix well, and it's done. It looks humble, but it pairs wonderfully with rice and is one of the best convenience store hacks I've ever made.

No-Chopping-Board Miso Soup

For the soup, we'll make a quick miso soup without using a cutting board. To save on washing up, just boil water in a pot and use kitchen shears to snip the aburaage directly from the bag into the pot. Add green onions and dissolve some dashi-infused miso paste, and it's done in no time. Dashi-infused miso is a lifesaver on busy or tiring days. Watching the miso gently swirl in the pot is deeply comforting. Let's embrace our lazy side and warm up with this hot soup. Adding miso soup instantly elevates this into a proper, complete set meal.

Toppings and Buttered Corn

To top the Hamburg steak, we'll fry an egg in butter, seasoning simply with salt and pepper to keep the yolk runny. Then, toss sweet corn into the same pan to soak up all that rich, browned butter flavor, seasoning with soy sauce and mirin to make 'buttered corn'. This side dish is so delicious it could easily make you eat two bowls of rice on its own. We'll also microwave some broccoli for color. These toppings elevate the Hamburg steak, creating a gorgeous, restaurant-style plate right at home.

Sizzling Plating and Tasting

Finally, heat a heatproof ceramic plate (suitable for gas stoves or microwaves) until piping hot. Arrange the buttered corn, broccoli, and our star—the Hamburg steak—on the plate, and pour the demi-glace sauce generously over it to create a wonderful sizzling sound. The hot Hamburg steak melts in your mouth, offering a professional yet comforting taste that you'll never tire of. Adding mayonnaise and shichimi torgarashi for a flavor twist is a guilty pleasure. It's amazing that we can enjoy such a luxurious set meal for around 800 yen using convenience store ingredients. A convenience store really holds all of life's sweet and savory moments.
