I was had a bunch of shiso leaves and tofu, and came up with this recipe to use them up.

It's easier to drain the excess water from the tofu if put a weight on top. The stir fried vegetables in Step 4 can be mixed in right away to make a kind of warm salad, or you can also make the vegetables a day in advance so that the flavors marry. You can use any combination of vegetables you like, but the flavor of the shiitake mushrooms and the crisp texture of enoki mushrooms used here are pretty nice. Recipe by Kuchannomama
