Tofu & Okara Springy and Chewy Nuggets

I wanted to try making tofu nuggets that weren't deep-fried, and finally managed to make these.

If making them in the shapes of onigiri rice balls like shown in the photo, wrap them in plastic wrap so that they don't stick to the shaping mold to make it easier.
You could also mix in cheese, seaweed, jako fish, to add some calcium. This would give yet a different flavor and make them even more nutritious. Recipe by sayata

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Without draining the tofu, put everything into a bowl and mix.

  2. 2

    You can optionally make cute shapes. This time I used onigiri rice ball shapers to make them sort of like taiyaki (fish shaped pancakes filled with red bean paste).

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a frying pan and pan-fry both sides until browned.

  4. 4

    Once they have browned to your preference, they're done. Serve with vinegar and soy sauce, Japanese mustard and soy sauce, sugar and soy sauce, or ketchup.
