Easy Shallow-Fried Tofu with Mentsuyu

cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp

Deep-frying tofu is too much work, so I shallow-fried the tofu. I made it because I wanted to recreate a dish I used to have at a Japanese pub.

It's a shame that I didn't have 'momiji oroshi' (spicy grated daikon radish) this time.

You only need to fry the top and bottom of the tofu pieces at Step 3. You don't have to fry the sides.

It's also delicious with 'momiji oroshi' (spicy grated daikon radish).

I recommend eating this with cooked soba noodles. They're pretty tasty together. For 2 servings. Recipe by Karupinetto

Place the tofu into a serving bowl, pour in the Step 1 mentsuyu, and sprinkle with green onion on top.

This is a different version using eggplants. I added shallow-fried eggplants as well.
