Radish Bonito Shrimp Furikake is a popular Japanese seasoning that is commonly used to sprinkle over rice or noodles. It is made with a mixture of bonito flakes, dried shrimp, and finely chopped radish leaves that have been sautéed in soy sauce. The combination of savory and umami flavors, along with a slightly crunchy texture, makes this dish a favorite among Japanese food lovers. It is also a great way to add extra flavor and nutrition to your meals without adding extra calories or fat.

Instructions

1.	Remove the radish leaves and rinse them under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel, then chop them finely.

3.	Add the sakura ebi shrimp to the wok and dry roast for 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant, then transfer them to the bowl with the bonito flakes.
4.	Add the chopped radish leaves to the wok and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they have wilted and softened. Transfer them to the bowl with the bonito flakes and shrimp.
5.	Drizzle soy sauce over the ingredients in the bowl and toss everything together until evenly coated.
