- 4 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Rinse the peas. Pour the water into a pan. Add the peas and soak for a night.

Add the salt. Cover the pan and bring the water to a boil on medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and boil for about 10 minutes until the peas become soft.

comment:
This rice dish is similar to sekihan (steamed rice with red beans). Although this dish is not popular, it has a very good taste.
