Inari Pouch

[Ingredients]

• 3 pieces deep-fried tofu (tau pok)

• 400ml dashi stock

• 3tbsp sugar

• 4-5tbsp soy sauce

• 2tbsp sake

• 2tbsp mirin

[Steps]

1. Roll a chopstick over each piece of tofu to make it easier to open. Cut each one in half and then gently open it to make a pouch. Place in a bamboo strainer or colander and pour boiling water over both sides to remove oil.

2. Heat the remaining ingredients in a saucepan and add the tofu pouches. Simmer over low heat until most of the liquid has reduced, about 15-20mins. Remove from heat and drain in a bamboo strainer or colander.
