Okazu is just a name for "side dishes"

Okazu (おかず or お数; お菜; 御菜) is a

fish, meat, vegetable, or tofu. Nearly any food eaten with rice can be considered okazu, though it is distinct from furikake, which is meant specifically to add flavor to the rice itself rather than to be eaten alongside rice. In modern Japanese cuisine
, okazu can accompany noodles in place of rice.
