The chicken tsukune that is served at a restaurant called Japanzu in Tottori City is delicious. I wanted to try recreating it, so we could indulge in lots of them. I asked the restaurant owner, and he said they use special free-range chicken from Kyushu.Be sure to rub the onions with salt very well and tightly squeeze out the excess moisture to soften them up. Otherwise you'll end up with tsukune with a strange texture. Also try to knead the meat mixture together well. Recipe by Kuni

If you only use minced chicken, they'll tend to turn out tough. Adding tofu is an easy way of making them fluffy.I also recommend dipping them in soft poached eggs!You could also use firm tofu, but the end result will be smoother with silken tofu. For 8 tsukune patties. Recipe by EnjoyKitchen

I made at home the frozen chicken tsukune patties that I normally buy at a store.The tsukune patties will be cold and tough by the time you eat it for lunch, so I added some silken tofu thinking that it might make the patties a little softer.The top picture is before they were frozen.The reheated chicken patties lose the thickness in the sauce, but the taste has soaked into it.(If you have time in the morning, make a small amount of sauce and apply it onto the heated chicken patties if you like.)

I made this for my husband, who loves meat.You can add any kind of vegetables you like♪The patties itself aren't strongly seasoned. Recipe by Rinnyo

I wanted to make something delicious and healthy.Make sure you knead it well! Recipe by nani cafe

Thank you for taking a look at my recipe.I love juicy pork shumai dumplings as well as sweet shrimp shumai dumplings, but in the pursuit of making something that was as healthy as possible, I wanted to make tofu shumai dumplings too.These are low in calories, have no added oil and are good for you.It's important to drain the tofu well to start.I made them bigger than the usual shumai dumplings.I used wonton wrappers this time, but if you use shumai wrappers instead, you will need to 25 to 30.These are "hana-shumai" (flower shaped shumai - the shredded wrappers look like petals) so they're easy to form.

I checked out the seasonal okra, and thought they could be turned into tsukune.Wipe off the excess oil in Step 5.By steam-cooking the tsukune in sake, the meat becomes very tender. For 10 dumplings. Recipe by michipapa

When my oldest son was still little, I made this as baby food for him.Now I'm making it for my second son.But it tastes good even to adults!Check the hardness of your dough as you add water and don't add too much at once! Recipe by OBU

I didn't have enough ground meat... but I remembered I had tofu, so I prepared this! We also like to put tofu into hamburger patties.Use carrots, shiitake mushrooms or whatever vegetables you like. I recommend microwaving the vegetables before mixing them in since the tsukune patties are very soft. If you find it hard to form the mixture into patties, just drop into a hot frying pan using 2 spoons. Cook through thoroughly on low heat. Recipe by Mama usako

This is a recipe to use up okara.You can taste the okara with this ratio, so this is good for people who love soy beans. For those people who want to make them more meaty, or people who don't like okara, I recommend using 300 g of ground meat and 100 g of okara. Recipe by andhorse

This is the second recipe for using chicken breast meat.You don't have to cook the patties all the way through during Step 3 because you'll also be simmering them in the sauce during Step 4 (if both sides have lightly browned to a golden color, that's good enough). Recipe by mumi

This is my husband's favourite dish that I serve often.Wipe off the excess oil in the pan before adding the sauce ingredients! If there is a lot of oil, the sauce will separate and won't blend together. Recipe by Haranouenoponyoponyo.
