Miso Soup With Mushrooms And Tofu
Added: 6th Oct, 2006 | Viewed 462 times | |
I recently had the pleasure of sampling a very flavourful Japanese dish called 'Katsu-Don' and the Miso soup that came with it was very satisfying. I have dug up a slight variation to the soup I had, this one with mushrooms and tofu can also be served as a main. You won't believe that it cooks in under 10 minutes.
 
Cooking Time: 10 mins
Serves 2
  Vegetarian  From My Recipe Book
Ingredients
   2 tbsp yellow miso paste
   4 cups water
   1 tbsp soy sauce
   100g firm tofu, cubed
   75g shiitake mushrooms, sliced
   4 matchstick pieces of ginger
   2 spring onions, sliced
Method
Combine miso paste, soy sauce, water and ginger in a saucepan and simmer for 4 minutes over medium heat. Add mushrooms, tofu and spring onions. Cook for a few minutes until the mushrooms are soft.
Serving suggestions
  • Serve hot topped with chopped garlic chives and a sprinkling of black pepper.
  • Gel's Notes
  • Miso Paste is readily available in the Asian sections of most supermarkets or in specialty Asian Grocery stores.
