Agedashi tofu is a classic Japanese dish, prized for its combination of crispy and chewy textures, as well as its delicate flavors. Agedashi tofu has its roots in traditional Japanese cuisine. "Agedashi" literally means "tofu fried in broth." This dish is often served at izakayas (Japanese tapas bars) and kaiseki (fine Japanese cuisine) restaurants.

Instructions

Drain the tofu and wrap it in a clean cloth. Place a weight on top (such as a plate) to press out excess water. Let it rest for about 15-20 minutes.
Cut the tofu into 5-6 cm cubes. Sift the potato or cornstarch onto a plate and roll the tofu cubes in it until well coated.
Heat the frying oil in a deep skillet or deep fryer to approximately 180°C. Fry the tofu cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the fried tofu and let it drain on paper towels.
In a small saucepan, combine the dashi, soy sauce, and mirin. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and keep the sauce warm.
Arrange the fried tofu cubes in individual bowls. Pour the hot sauce over the tofu. Sprinkle with nori strips, thinly sliced spring onions, daikon, and grated ginger to taste.
Serve immediately to enjoy the crispy texture of the fried tofu with the savory sauce.

Recipe notes

Be sure to use vegan dashi if you prefer a 100% plant-based version. Replace niboshi dashi (fish-based) with kombu dashi (seaweeds).
