Tofu and Crispy Jako Fish Salad
- 200 grams Tofu (I recommend silken)
- 3 tbsp Chirimen jako (semi-dried salted tiny sardines)
- 1/2 head Green leaf or red lettuce
- 1 small bundle Spinach (good for eating raw)
- 5 Cherry tomatoes
- 50 ml Oil-free shiso dressing
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 3 sheets Korean seaweed (if you don't have, flavored seaweed)
- Drain the tofu (refer to.
- Slice into 5 cm x 5 cm that's 1 cm thin.
- Saute the jako in a frying pan with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil until crispy (until the jako starts jumping in the pan and makes a spitting sound.)
- Then transfer to a plate.
- Wash and drain the lettuce and spinach.
- Cut the spinach into 4-5 cm pieces with a knife, and hand-shred the lettuce into whatever sizes you prefer.
- The cherry tomatoes can be used as they are, but you can also cut them in half for a nice look.
- Combine shiso dressing and 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil to create the dressing and set aside.
- Put the lettuce and spinach in a container.
- Mix in half of the jako and lightly mix.
- Arrange the tofu on top and sprinkle remaining jako.
- Use your hands to shred the seaweed and distribute as you like.
- Garnish the plate with cherry tomatoes and it's finished!
- Top with the dressing just before eating.
