Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Pan-fry the tofu on both sides before cooking to ensure it stays intact and gains a richer, more savory flavor during long simmering.
  • Adding tuna sauce to the seasoning gives deep umami and richness without needing any additional stock or complex broths.
  • Slicing the radish too thin causes it to break apart during cooking, while slicing it too thick makes it take too long to cook—aim for a consistent 1.5cm thickness for ideal results.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy soft tofu and tender, sweet radish in one single dish.
  • People looking for a reliable main side dish that everyone in the family will enjoy.
  • Fans of thick, savory sauces that cling beautifully to rice.
