These chewy okara dumplings transform into an amazing ebi chili-style dish! I can't believe something so budget-friendly can taste this satisfying! ♪

- Dashi powder1/2 tsp
- Onion1/2

Directions
30 min- 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
Shape the dough into bite-sized balls and use chopsticks to make a hole in the center, forming donut-shaped dumplings.
- 3
Heat salad oil in a frying pan, arrange the dumplings and pan-fry both sides until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- 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.

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.
