Nikujaga (literal translation: meat potato) is a stewed dish that commonly appears on the dinner table of Japanese families. It's definitely comfort food, especially for the winter months. Even here in Vancouver, where Japanese restaurants are now ubiquitous, home-style dishes such as these are hard to find. This is the recipe - sorry it's in Japanese (hopefully the Google translation function will help).
And of course, when preparing a Japanese meal, you can't just have one main dish, but a bunch of smaller side dishes. I decided make hoursensou ohitashi, a simple but healthy dish of spinach flavoured with dashi and soy sauce.
