Miso Tofu-

1 block tofu-medium/firm or firm tofu
1/2 cup miso
1 stalk green onion
roasted sesame seeds
1/2 knob fresh ginger, grated
1/2 tsp. mirin
water
1/4 c. sugar


In a pot, add in the miso, mirin, sugar, water, and grated fresh ginger. Mix all of the ingredients together on a low heat for about 5 minutes, constantly stirring. The miso should not bubble up. Towards the end add in the green onion. Leave this sauce on the side to slightly cool off.

Cut the tofu into medium sqaures, and roll them into cornstarch. In a frying pan, heat oil, and cook all sides of the tofu until brown. Drain the cooked tofu onto a plate covered with paper towel to drain the access oil, then add it into a serving bowl. Pour the sauce over the tofu, sprinkle with the sesame seeds, and enjoy!
