Steps to make Japanese Tofu Steak - Tofu Recipe:
Wrap the tofu in paper towels and put some weight on the top to drain the excess water. Do this for about 30 minutes.
In the meantime, thinly slice the green onion. Grate the ginger and garlic.
Grate the daikon radish. With your hand, slightly squeeze out the excess daikon juice. You don’t want the grated daikon to be too wet or too dry.
When the tofu block is ready (after 30 minutes), cut it into equal-sized pieces. For my tofu block, I was able to cut it into 10 pieces; each piece is about 1” by 2” by 1/2”.
In a clean bowl, add some potato starch. Then coat the tofu pieces evenly. You want to do this right before tofu is ready to be pan-fried.
In a pan, add 1 to 2 tbsp of oil and fry tofu on medium-high heat. You want to fry each side of the tofu pieces for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. When the tofu are done, take them out and serve with the sauce of your choice.
To make the teriyaki sauce, add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of mirin, 1 tablespoon of sake, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of grated garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon of grated ginger to a pan. Heat the sauce mixture on low heat. The sauce is ready once the sugar is all dissolved.
To serve the tofu with teriyaki sauce, simply drizzle the sauce on top of the fried tofu. And garnish with some green onion.
To make the ponzu sauce, in a clean bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 tbsp of rice vinegar. For demonstration purposes, I only use half of the ingredients measurement for 1/2 block of tofu. As I mentioned before, you can adjust the ingredients for a larger or smaller amount of sauce.
To serve, place some grated daikon on top of the tofu, sprinkle katsuobushi, garnish with some green onion, and lastly drizzle some ponzu sauce.
