I had leftover meatball mixture with tofu that I used to make a hot pot. So I packed it into koya dofu and made a simmered dish.

When you make a cut in the koya dofu, it's easier with a small knife (a fruit knife).
It's delicious even cold, so perfect for a bento box!
It's also delicious if you add some ginger (grated) to the meat mixture in Step 2. Recipe by EnjoyKitchen

  2. 200 grams▲Minced meat
  3. 4 tbsp▲Green onions (finely chopped)
  4. 100 grams▲Silken Tofu
  5. 1 dash▲ Salt

  7. 400 ml●Water
  8. 1 tsp●Dashi stock granules
  9. 2 tbsp●Sake
  10. 2 tbsp●Mirin
  11. 3 tbsp●Soy sauce

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Rehydrate the koya dofu in plenty of water until softened.

  2. 2

    Combine the ▲ ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Divide the mixture into 5 equal portions and roll them into balls. You don't need to drain the tofu.

  3. 3

    After you have squeezed excess water out of the koya dofu, make a slit in the middle.

  4. 4

    Pack the filling mixture from Step 2 into the koya dofu from Step 3. It's easier if you pack the filling into the koya dofu in about 3 batches.

  5. 5

    Put the ● seasoning ingredients in a pan that just fits the koya dofu, and stir well. Place the koya dofu upright in the pan.

  6. 6

    Cover Step 5 with a lid and simmer. Once the koya dofu has absorbed the sauce, and the sauce has reduced, it's done.
