I always make rice bowls with meat, but they started to taste even better after I started adding some tofu too.

Feel free to use firm or silken tofu, I personally prefer to use silken.
Sprinkle over some green onions at the end for a bit of colour.
Top off the rice bowl with any sauce left over in the pan at the end.
If the flavour is a bit too thin for you, feel free to add some soy sauce or mirin. Recipe by Ryo---ko

    Cut the onion into 8 mm thick slices. Cut the tofu into bite-sized pieces.

    Add the water and mentsuyu to a pan and when boiled also add the ginger, pork and onion.

    When the pork begins to change colour, add the tofu. Cover the tofu with the pork, and then cover with a lid. Simmer on a medium heat for 10 minutes.

    Once the 10 minutes is up it's ready! If you let it cool once and then warm it up again, it tastes even more amazing!!

    Don't throw away any sauce that is leftover in the pan, let's use it for Mum's lunch. "Oyakodon with Freeze-Dried Tofu".
