Yellow rice - Ohan

Japanese: 黄飯 - おうはん
Yellow rice - Ohan

This dish is found in the Usuki region of Oita Prefecture. It is also called Bungo Yellow Rice and is said to have been introduced by Otomo Sorin. It is called yellow rice because it is yellow, but it is often served with an ikanago dish, and that dish is sometimes called yellow rice. Put a small amount of cooking oil into a deep pot, add drained tofu, then shredded burdock, and when it has softened a little, add carrots and daikon. Add grilled fish (usually sand lance) with the bones, head, tail, etc. removed, leaving only the meat, add green onions, and simmer. The yellow rice is cooked in a decoction of gardenia fruit, and then topped with other ingredients.

Japanese:

大分県臼杵(うすき)地方にみられる料理。豊後(ぶんご)黄飯ともいい、大友宗麟(そうりん)伝来のものといわれる。黄色い飯(めし)なので黄飯というが、いかなご料理を添えることが多く、その料理を黄飯ということもある。少量の食用油を深い鍋(なべ)に入れ、まず水切りした豆腐、次にささがきごぼうを入れ、少し柔らかくなったところでニンジン、ダイコンを加える。骨、頭、尾などを取り除いて肉だけにした焼き魚(イカナゴを使うことが多い)の身を加え、ネギを加えて煮る。クチナシの実の煎(せん)じ汁で炊いた黄色い飯に、具をかけて用いる。
