Ingredients

  • 400g firm tofu
  • 2 cups spinach, washed and chopped
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted

Directions

  1. Start by preparing the tofu. Cut the tofu into small, bite-sized cubes. Be careful not to make them too small, or they might break apart when cooking.

    Remember, tofu is like a sponge, it will soak up all the flavors you add to it!

  2. In a large pot, bring water to a boil and blanch the spinach for 1 minute. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out any excess water.

    Spinach is Popeye’s favorite veggie! It will make you strong like him!

  3. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, mirin, and rice vinegar to create a simple and tasty sauce.

  4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.

    Don’t flip the tofu too much, let it get nice and crispy on each side!

  5. Add the spinach to the pan with the tofu and pour the sauce over everything. Stir gently to coat the tofu and spinach with the sauce.

  6. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds on top for a nutty crunch and extra flavor.

    Sesame seeds are like tiny flavor bombs, they make everything taste better!

  7. Serve the Tofu Steak Ohitashi hot and enjoy a delicious and healthy meal with your family!

  • Steamed white rice
  • Miso soup

Why did the tofu go to the party? Because it wanted to be the soy of the party!”
