Step:

  1. Slice Daikon about 2cm thick. Remove skin and cut them in half if large.

  2. Place Fried Tofu in a colander and pour over very hot water to remove excess oil. Cut into bite-size pieces if large.

  3. Place Daikon and Ginger in a saucepan, add Water just enough to cover, and add Dashi Powder. You can use your home-made dashi stock for this.

  4. Add seasoning ingredients, place Tofu pieces on top, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover with lid, and cook for 20 to 30 minutes.

  5. When Daikon pieces are soft, remove the lid, and cook over medium heat, occasionally tossing, until the liquid is almost gone.
