I used to make this with firm tofu, but then I started thinking that using atsuage would be easier.
Since you don't need to drain the tofu or coat it with katakuriko, this method is so much more fun!

Make sure you strain the grated daikon radish well so that the sauce doesn't become too diluted. Recipe by Hokkori-no

Steps

1

(Make the sauce) Put all of the sauce ingredients into a heat-resistant container and microwave for 1.5 minutes at 600 W.
2

You could also put the ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil.
3

Cut the atsuage into bite-sized pieces.
4

Heat the frying pan and then add the vegetable oil. Put in the atsuage and fry both sides. (if you cover with a lid, they'll plump up).
5

Place the atsuage from Step 4 onto a dish and top with the well-strained grated daikon radish. Then pour on the sauce from Step 1 and garnish with green onions.
