Misoyaki Eggplant and Tofu
Ingredients
  • Eggplant/Aubergine: I love Japanese eggplant for it's mild sweetness and because it tends to not have as many seeds. However, it's quite difficult to find it North America so I like to use Chinese eggplants instead. Of course, you can use your favourite variety of eggplant.
  • Medium firm tofu: You'll find most recipes recommending to use firm or extra firm tofu, however I like to use traditional/medium firm tofu because the inside stays moist, soft and almost fluffy! Feel free to use firm or extra firm tofu, though.
  • Potato starch: dusting the tofu with potato starch helps achieve that beautiful golden crispy exterior.
  • Sake: Can be omitted if you can not consume alcohol, however please note that the flavour will change slightly.
  • Sugar
  • Vegan Kombu Mentsuyu: Can be substituted with soy sauce.
  • Aji-mirin: Again, can be omitted with you can not consume alcohol. Replace with water and a touch more sugar.
  • Miso paste: I like to use yellow or red miso for this recipe because of its stronger flavour compared to white miso.
Note: Ingredients may have been altered from the original.
