I adapted a very popular recipe from our nursery school.

The ingredient list may seem rather complicated, but this recipe is easy enough to make in large batches!
The important point is to put miso in both the meat mixture and the sauce!
At the nursery school we allow for 40 g （weight of the tofu only）per serving. Recipe by Noraa
