Vegan Agedashi Tofu 🌱

Agedashi is probably the dish that best sums up why I am so passionate about vegan cooking. It’s a dish that is almost (although rarely) vegan when you buy it from a restaurant as it uses dashi, a Japanese umami stock that is traditionally made with fish. A vegan version of dashi is easy to make with Kombu and shiitake and this dish is so easy to make with a bit of practice. If you like crispy tofu and you haven’t tried using potato starch, you will like me for this one! I also love this topped with seaweeds which will be next week’s green cookbook recipe!

Steps

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Gently drain the tofu and place on kitchen paper. You can’t press in the same way as you would a firmed tofu as it’s really delicate. Cut into cubes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the sauce by using a little dashi stock (you will need to prepare this in advance by soaking and lightly simmering the shiitake and seaweed) and boiling in a pan with soy sauce or ponzu and a few punches of sugar. The sauce will thicken slightly but don’t overcook. It should be served warm.

  3. 3

    Dip each side of the tofu square into the potato flour. Heat a little oil and gently fry on each side. It should colour but not brown.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle with your choice of toppings (you only need a tiny bit). I used spring onion, ginger and shichimi. I also like grated white radish (mooli) and sometimes use pink radish and seaweeds.

@rachel_madewithplantsI love to cook vegan, seasonal, plant-based dishes. For me, cooking is fun and I particularly love a challenge! I’ve always loved to cook, but it wasn’t until I became vegan that I became really excited about creating recipes. I realised that the old cooking ‘rules’ were not rules at all and you can be as creative and imaginative with food as you like; I’m a true veg lover and I’m known for trying to ‘veganise’ anything and everything 🌱

I've had this in Japan while travelling, many times. Great to see a recipe for it. Where do you buy the ingredients? Online or at a specialist shop?
