This is a simple recipe using commercial mentsuyu.
And it's delicious, too.

The length of time simmering in the sauce should be adjusted to taste. For those who prefer a light taste, just a short blending should be fine.
It's fun to discover your own taste while seasoning. For 2 servings. Recipe by Kouchan@

Steps

1

Cut the atsuage tofu and shiitake into bite-sized pieces. Briskly rinsing the atsuage in lukewarm water removes excess oil and gives a lighter taste.
2

Combine mentsuyu, water, ginger, sugar, and ichimi powder in a bowl and mix evenly. There you have your sauce!
3

In a heated frying pan, add the ingredients from Step 1, and stir-fry until browned.
4

Once it has browned evenly, add the sauce from Step 2. Determine the concentration of the sauce to your liking by adjusting the simmering time.
5

When it reaches your taste of preference, transfer to a dish and serve. To add color, I sprinkled white sesame seeds and julienned shiso leaves‼
