Meat Wrapped Tofu

I was searching for a hearty tofu dish for my tofu-loving husband, when I ran across a recipe that used firm tofu and beef! It was just as good with pork and grilled tofu, so this is now a family favorite.
I garnished this with finely julienned cucumber, but sesame seeds, chopped green onion or snow peas and so on are OK too. Or you can just omit the garnish!
The meat just has to be thin enough to wrap around the tofu; it doesn't have to be as thinly sliced as shabu-shabu meat.
Beef is OK too of course. Adjust the size of the tofu pieces and the number of meat slices to your liking. For 4 servings. Recipe by Kawakamisan

Meat-Wrapped Tofu With Oyster Sauce and Mayonnaise Meat-Wrapped Tofu With Oyster Sauce and Mayonnaise
I came up with this recipe when I was trying to make a substantial and filling dish using cheap thinly cut pork.When you wrap the meat around the filling, it's ok if the filling peeks out a bit.The cheese will melt out a little, but it will get nice and crispy, which is delicious in and of itself. The oyster sauce-mayonnaise combination burns easily, so make sure to lower the heat before you coat the meat rolls in it. For 8 pieces. Recipe by emakatu cookpad.japan -
Tofu Steak Wrapped in Sliced Pork using Frozen Tofu Tofu Steak Wrapped in Sliced Pork using Frozen Tofu
Frozen tofu has a lot of benefits . You can use it instead of meat and it often appears on our family table.Even if you reduce the quantity of meat you still have a satisfying dish. This is why I tried to make recipes with frozen tofu. This time I used ginger as the main flavor to season because my husband loves it .When you freeze the tofu you can put the packaged tofu in the freezer as it is. There is a possibility that it may swell and explode so it might be better to put the package into a plastic bag. It is ideal to defrost the frozen tofu at room temperature but If you use the microwave, transfer the tofu in a spacious heat-resistent dish and put it in a 500w microwave for about 6 minutes.
