Ingredients




2 Silken tofu cakes, drained and chilled
2 tablespoons Olive oil
2 tablespoons Plain flour
2 cups Soya milk (I used 1 ½ cups, unsweetened soya milk to get a creamier sauce)
1 tablespoon White miso paste (or add to taste)
1 teaspoon Sugar (Used ½ tsp sugar)
1 tablespoon Sake wine
Bonito flakes and shredded nori seaweed for garnishing

Preparation

1 Heat olive oil over a gentle flame and add flour, whisking briefly to form a roux (paste). 2 Add soya milk (or use low fat milk) to the paste, whisking all the while until a sauce forms and thickens. 3 Add miso paste (1 tbsp or add to taste) and continue whisking, then season with sugar and sake wine. 4 Heat oven to 180C. 5 Cut each drained and chilled tofu cake into four pieces. 6 Place a tofu square in a ramekin or individual bowl and season with two spoonfuls, or more, of the sauce. Repeat with the rest of the tofu squares or serve it family-style in a shallow baking dish. 7 Place tofu squares in the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until browned. 8 Garnish with shredded nori seaweed and bonito flakes and serve immediately.
