This dish is healthy and easy to cook!! We have many ways to cook Tofu steak in Japan. I am going to introduce Tofu steak covered in grated Chinese yams. Chinese yams have a mild flavor and are quite delicious. Please try it.

Ingredients:

Makes 4 servings

• 1 tofu
• 400g Chinese yam
• 2 eggs
• 2 tee spoons Dashimonoto
• 3 table spoons soy sauce
• 1 green onion
• 1 sheet of seasoned dried laver

Method

1. Peel skin of Chinese yam and grate it with a grater. (Leave top part of skin, then easy to grate and easy to hold it)
   
2. Add dashinomoto, say sauce and egg. Mix them well.
3. Cut tofu into 16 pieces and about 1cm thick. Leave the tofu for a while on the cutting board to remove liquid.( If you want, please season with salt and pepper).
   
4. Put a steak plate over the small heat to reheat the plate. Then, place Tofu on the plate and cover mixture of the Chinese yam( over the small heat.)
   
5. When the mixture of the Chinese yam was cooked( just as though you cook pan cake) , turn the heat off. Sprinkle chopped green onions and season dried laver as topping. You can sprinkle flack bonitos on it, if you want.
   

☆　I used a steak plate in this recipe. You can use a flying pan to cook for 4 serving.
