I created this recipe because I wanted to make something healthy but filling! It should taste delicious even if it's a diet-friendly dish! I tried hard to come up with this recipe!

Please taste the sweet vinegar sauce and adjust it to your liking before adding the katakuriko slurry. When the sauce is cooled, the taste becomes milder, so it's best to make it a little bit strong and vinegary! Please adjust the consistency of the sauce to your liking. Recipe by MPxo
