About

A traditional Japanese hot tofu dish.

You can also try making this with dashi sauce. You just need 1/2 cup Konbu Dashi or dashi soup stock, 1/2 cup mirin and half a cup of light soy sauce. Mix them all together in a saucepan and bring the sauce to a boil.

Pour the dashi sauce over the fried tofu and top with bonito flakes, spring onion and grated radish. Oishi!
