The Ultimate Tofu Diet Bowl
- 2/3 block Tofu (from a 400 g block)
- 1 Egg
- 500 ml Water
- 2 tbsp each Chicken soup stock granules, mentsuyu
- 1 tsp each Grated ginger, ponzu sauce
- 1 1/2 tbsp each Water & katakuriko
- 1 dash of each Ume vinegar (optional), green onion
- Prepare your beaten eggs and set aside.
- Prepare the katakuriko slurry as well and keep aside in a separate dish.
- Combine the ingredients in a saucepan and heat.
- When it comes to a boil, put the whole tofu into the pan.
- Break it up into large chunks by pressing down on it with the back of a ladle.
- When it comes to a boil again, keep the high on high and add the katakuriko and water.
- Keep mixing for about a minute and a half.
- The sauce will thicken.
- Lower the heat a bit and swirl in the beaten egg.
- Stir the pan up a couple of times.
- If you stir it too much you'll lose the fluffiness of the egg, so just stir it 2-3 times.
- Taste and add salt if needed.
- Transfer to a bowl, and sprinkle with some chopped green onion to taste.
- I like to add about 1/2 teaspoon of ume vinegar just before serving.
