When I added aburaage (deep-fried tofu) to my usual stewed sweet potato recipe (learned from my mom), it tasted so good that it's now a standard dish in our home.The sweet potatoes break apart easily, so while they are simmering, it's best to not to poke them about.If the seasoning is too mild, add soy sauce to taste.After removing the pot from the stove, let it sit a while to allow the flavors to absorb.

Simple yet delicious meal for lunch or dinner

This is a very simple recipe that I learned from a friend. It's very friendly to the budget, tastes good with rice and very easy to prepare. You may add pork into the recipe. It will taste better with pork.

This recipe originated from the "Sweet & Salty Green Pepper Stir-fry" recipe which I used to make for my children's lunch all the time. Then one day, I thought that they didn't have enough meat in their lunch, so I added pork belly and the flavor became so much better! Then I decided to add shiitake mushrooms in order to increase the volume and the nutrition content, and because they go well with a sweet & savory stir-fry.Steps 3-4: As the liquid decreases, it may start to burn, so adjust the heat accordingly.Rather than waiting until the liquid evaporates completely, it's best to stop the heat once it becomes slightly thickened.I use an induction stove top.

This is a simmered dish that my mother made when I was small. When I was young, I found it less appetizing because the green peas and aburaage were drenched in the color of the eggplants. Now this is the sort of Japanese flavor that makes me homesick when I am overseas. I tried to reproduce this nostalgic dish by asking my mother for instructions.1. Make sure to chop the eggplants into large pieces. They break apart and dissolve if they are too small.2. Stir-fry the green beans first so that the eggplants don't soak up too much oil.3. My mother's simmered dishes - like this one - uses high heat and needs to be flavored quickly, so make sure to check the amount of water in the pan occasionally.4. If the flavor is allowed to soak in too long, the color may become less appetizing. Recipe by PARNELL
