Pork Tofu


Pork Tofu is a Japanese dish that is one of my husband's favorite meals and lucky for him that we have an oriental store that sells the two tofu for this dish.
I serve this up with rice and mac/potato salad and Daikon (pickled Japanese turnip) oh so good!! 

Ingredients:

4 pork cutlets chopped chop suey style
1 package wet tofu cubed
1 package dry tofu  cubed
1 bunch green onions chopped
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1/2 cup shoyu
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup water
1 cup chicken broth
dash black pepper

Directions:
Place chopped up pork in a pot that has been heated up .
Add the minced garlic and cook till pork is no longer pink.
Add the shoyu,water, sugar and chicken broth mixture.
Let cook while you prepare the tofu's and green onion.
When they are ready add to the pot with the pork and wet ingredients.
Lightly toss to cover all the tofu's and let cook for 5-10 minutes. You don't want to be stirring this around as it will break up the wet tofu but they do need to be covered well with the shoyu,sugar,chicken broth mixture..
Since I cook for 2 I get two meals out of this recipe.
