丼 (Don) is a bowl of rice with food on top, is a popular and delicious Japanese fast food for when you need a quick meal. But I recommend that you have it in a healthier way, especially if you are in hurry, by using half tofu and half minced meat in to help reduce the calories. "Negi Miso" = minced Japanese leek with miso that is combined with meat in a delicious way! Enjoy this healthy rice bowl!

Steps

20 mins

1

Chop the leek into small pieces and put in a bowl.
2

Wrap the tofu in paper towels and let sit to soak up the water from the tofu for half an hour. Mix the miso, soy sauce, sugar, sake, and sweet flour paste.
3

Pour 1 tsp of olive oil into a frying pan, and once hot, add the grated garlic and ginger. When it starts to smell nice, add the minced meat and fry on medium heat.
4

When the meat has browned, add the leek and continue cooking. When the leak becomes soft, add the tofu. When you add the tofu, break off pieces with your hands, and chop it roughly into smaller pieces, like the minced pork, using a wooden spatula.
5

Next add the mixed sauce to the frying pan. Mix and cook well until the sauce has reduced. It usually takes about 5 to 10 min on medium to low heat.
6

Finally, prepare a bowl of cooked rice and put the cooked meat on the rice. If you wish, garnish with cherry tomatoes and enjoy!
