Fried Pork and Aburaage Spirals with Ankake Thick Sauce
I wasn't sure if there would be enough meat for four people just by frying it, so I decided to use it together with aburaage that I always have in the freezer.
Additonal points: I rolled the meat in katakuriko in Steps 2 and 3, but it's not really necessary since it'll stick together without it.
Remove the excess oil and squeeze well! If you skip this, you'll notice the distinctive smell of the aburaage and it'll taste a bit funny.
Be sure to check out Steps 3 and 4 well.
Spoon on the piping hot ankake sauce just before serving.
The size of the meat will be different according to how it's cut, but generally, each roll needs 3-4 slices of thinly cut pork or 4-5 slices of pork belly. Recipe by Shijimi24

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Drain the aburaage by pouring on some boiling water. Once cooled, squeeze out the excess moisture. The aburaage will lack in flavor if you skip this step. Getting rid of the extra moisture is important as well.
- 2
Spread the meat out so it's longer than, but the same width as the aburaage. Make 6 sets, using 4 slices of thin shabu-shabu pork (300 g pork). Put the aburaage on top of the meat.
- 3
Roll up, starting with the ends closest to you. You don't need to secure with toothpicks; just roll up so the ends are even.
- 4
Be sure to place the rolls seam-side down and cook over medium heat, without oil, until brown. If you do it this way, they won't unravel.
- 5
Roll them around to brown all sides. Cover with a lid for the latter half to cook through. Roll up the aburaage inside as is, without opening it up.
- 6
Cut in 1 cm slices and serve. It's easier to cut if you chill it in the fridge first! Reheat in the microwave before serving.
- 7
Heat the ★ ingredients or the ◯ ingredients for the ankake sauce in a small pot. Bring to a boil and heat until thickened.
- 8
Enjoy covered with plenty of piping hot ankake thick sauce! Serve by scooping the rolls up from the bottom. The flavors are soaked in and they're delicious.

Aburaage and Enoki sin Ponzu Sauce Aburaage and Enoki sin Ponzu Sauce
I love seasoning enoki mushrooms with ponzu and I also love it with the crispy texture of fried tofu as well. I thought that combining the two would make it very tasty.Do not overboil the enoki and remove as much moisture as possible.Make the tofu crispy! Once you add the enoki mushrooms, the fried tofu will soak up the water and becomes soggy, so I recommend making it just before serving. Recipe by Ponzu shokunin nao -

Spring Cabbage and Aburaage with Mustard Soy Sauce Spring Cabbage and Aburaage with Mustard Soy Sauce
I ate this a lot growing up in my parents' home! My grandma used to boil the cabbage, but I save time by microwaving.If you're serving this to adults only, add plenty of mustard - it tastes better. !(^^)! My microwave is 600W. Please adjust the cabbage cooking time depending on the wattage of your microwave as well as the mount of cabbage. I think it's best if you don't over-cook the cabbage, since you can enjoy the flavor better. ♪If you're using regular main-season cabbage, I think it's best to julienne it finely. Recipe by rie-tin -

Crispy Fried Yakisoba Noodles with Ankake Sauce Crispy Fried Yakisoba Noodles with Ankake Sauce
I love anakake-style dishes and oyster sauce. I wanted to season the sauce using oyster sauce.I always make this by just kinda eye-balling the measurement so it was quite difficult to create a proper recipe.-Before adding the sauce ingredients stir well first because the katakuriko tends to sink to the bottom.-You can use any leftover ingredients you have at home!-Use any meat such as mince, ham and bacon! If you serve this for your friends use a large dish to share! In that case cut the noodles beforehand. Recipe by ariatowa -
Crunchy Fried Noodles with Ankake Sauce Crunchy Fried Noodles with Ankake Sauce
My father and husband both love these noodles! I usually follow the recipe as written, but I adjust the flavor accordingly to whatever I add (ex. If onions are replaced with Japanese leeks, it'll lack natural sweetness so I add sugar, or add XO sauce, etc.)If you're going to use shrimp or squid, it's better to replace the oyster sauce for XO sauce. Depending on how many ingredients you add in, it may lack flavor, so add soy sauce (or salt) to adjust. Recipe by Sabumochi -
Warm Deep-Fried Mochi with Thick Ankake Sauce Warm Deep-Fried Mochi with Thick Ankake Sauce
Since I'm a mochi lover, I was so thrilled when this was served at dinner. At my insistence, my mom served it one more time, but that was it. When I asked why, she said it was too troublesome to deep fry. Then I recalled that she didn't like preparing foods that were deep-fried since it would make a mess.So, now that I'm married, I make these to my heart's content!Coating the crisp mochi in thick sauce tastes great, but it's also super tasty if you let the mochi absorb the sauce!But be careful not to let it sit for too long, or the oil will mix with the ankake sauce and affect the flavor.

Basic Yakisoba Noodles with Seafood and Thick Ankake Sauce Basic Yakisoba Noodles with Seafood and Thick Ankake Sauce
This is one of our favorite standard dishes that I've cooked for more than 20 years.If you simmer the squid too long, it'll harden too much, so I stir-fry it separately.You can use the vegetables that you have at home. It's also delicious to use bok choy, bean sprouts, shiitake mushrooms, chikuwa fishcakes, and kamaboko fishcakes, etc. If it's too much work to stir-fry the ingredients separately, you can stir-fry them in order.Please adjust the amount of salt to your liking.
