Directions

25 min
  1. 1

    In a bowl, combine 150g okara, 80g cornstarch, 150g tofu (or 100-130ml milk as substitute), and 1/2 tsp dashi powder. Mix well until the dough reaches the softness of an earlobe.

  2. 2

    Shape the dough into bite-sized balls and use chopsticks to make a hole in the center, forming donut-shaped dumplings.

  3. 3

    Heat salad oil in a frying pan, arrange the dumplings and pan-fry both sides until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    Finely chop 1/2 onion and sauté in the same pan. Once fragrant, return the dumplings to the pan, add the ★ seasonings, and toss everything together to coat evenly.

  5. 5

    Plate and serve while hot.

Tips

There is no need to drain the tofu. Substituting milk will not compromise the flavor. Shaping the dumplings like peeled shrimp will give them a more elegant appearance. As they harden when cooled, it is recommended to eat them while still warm.
