A sukiyaki-inspired dish with tofu as the main ingredient—an easy Japanese meal you can make quickly!
Recipe background:
In our home, we often call this dish 'Suki Tofu.' We only have sukiyaki occasionally, but this version uses less meat, making it a simple, everyday meal.
It comes together quickly, so it's perfect for busy weeknights after work!

Steps

1

Cut the tofu and beef into bite-sized pieces. Slice the green onion diagonally. (Cut the tofu first and let it drain in a strainer for about 5 minutes to remove excess water.)
2

Rub the shirataki noodles with salt, rinse with water, and cut into easy-to-eat lengths. (Kitchen scissors work well for this.)
3

Heat a little oil (not included in ingredient list) in a skillet. Sauté the beef. When it's mostly cooked, add the green onion and lightly sear.
4

Add the simmering sauce, tofu, and shirataki noodles. Stir occasionally and simmer for 6–8 minutes, until everything is cooked through.
