Simple recipe for "Kitsune-don (Kinugasa-don)" with deep-fried tofu

Ingredients (for 2 servings)

1 piece of deep-fried tofu
1 green onion
2 eggs
180 ml water
1/2 teaspoon Japanese soup stock
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sake
1 tablespoon mirin (sweet cooking rice wine)
1 tsp sugar
2 cups rice

Directions

Pour boiling water over fried tofu to remove oil, and squeeze.


Cut in half horizontally, then cut into bite-size pieces about 2 to 3 cm wide.


Cut the leeks diagonally and crack the egg into the container to break it up.


Combine water, Japanese soup stock, soy sauce, sake, mirin, and sugar in a pot and bring to a boil, then add fried tofu.


When it comes to a boil, add green onions.


When the leeks are cooked, pour in the beaten eggs.


When the eggs have set to a certain degree, turn off the heat. The trick is not to mix too much.


Top with rice in a bowl or rice bowl and serve!

How does kitsune-don (Kinugasa-don) taste?

I can't get enough of the fried bean curd that soaks up the broth as you bite into it! Combined with the richness of the fried bean curd oil, you can enjoy the deep sweet and spicy taste.


The flavor of the softly coated egg and crispy green onions are also a perfect match! The simplicity of this dish allows the deliciousness of each ingredient to stand out.


If you like, sprinkle some shichimi (seven spices) or sansho (Japanese pepper) on top for an extra kick of flavor. Since it can be prepared quickly, it is recommended for days when you do not have much time to spare.
