- A classic Japanese dish, Buta Dofu infuses tofu with some really great flavors from the pork and ginger. This dish is best served over rice and takes less than 20 minutes to prepare!
Ingredients:
1 Package of firm tofu, cubed
1/4 Cup fresh ginger (about 3 inches), sliced into strips
1 Pound bone-in pork chops (approx. 2 pork chops), cut into about 1 inch strips
1 Medium white onion, chopped into pieces roughly the same size as the pork
2 Tablespoons soy sauce, extra to taste
2 Green onion cut at a slight bias
1 Teaspoon garlic powder
1.5 Cups water plus 1/4 cups for slurry
1 Tablespoon canola oil
2 Tablespoons of cornstarch
Heat canola oil in medium-sized pan over medium heat
Add the bone-in piece of pork (if you bought bone-in pork chops) to pan
Once the bone has browned slightly, add the rest of the pork. Remember, we are only going to sauté the pork so you don’t need every piece to be browned, only cooked through.
After the pork has been cooking for a few minutes, add the chopped onion, ginger and garlic powder
After a minute, add the 1.5 cups of water and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
Give it a stir and bring to a boil, cover and let cook for 5-6 minutes
Check a larger piece to ensure that there is little to no pink in the center of the meat
Taste to adjust seasoning
Stir in tofu
Mix cornstarch with 1/4 cup of cold water in separate bowl and then slowly drizzle into pan
Let cook for 30 seconds
Add green onion and you’re done!
