• Tofu...

  Since no one had a Tofu recipe of their own to suggest, I''ll share the recipe that I cooked tonight.

  It was really good.

  2 large field mushrooms
  1/2 a packet of marinated tofu cubes (honey, soy and garlic)
  1 tbsp Mirin
  2 tbsp Soy sauce (I use low salt because I'm meant to be on a low salt diet)
  1 knob of fresh ginger (grated)
  a knob of salt-free butter
  Sesame oil

  Slice the field mushrooms and fry them in a knob of butter over a low heat until cooked.

  Add the tofu cubes and increase the heat slightly until the tofu is heated and both the tofu and mushrooms are starting to brown.

  Add the mirin and soy sauce and heat until the sauce thickens and goes a bit sticky.

  Throw in the ginger and turn the heat off. Give it a stir and pop the lid on for a few minutes. (I had to do this because the steak wasn't cooked yet. I'm not sure it actually added to the recipe!)

  I served the mushrooms and tofu with steak and on the side I served red capsicum that I'd sliced finely, carrots and bok choy that I'd added to the pan with the steak. 

  Once everything was on the plate I splashed a few small dots of pure sesame oil over the mushrooms, tofu and veges.

  It was really, really yummy.

  Go try it.
