Tofu is so much tastier when served marinated in tamari, especially in combination with mirin.

Serves 4

Ingredients

400g Clearspring Tofu, cut into 2cm cube
1 tbsp Clearspring Toasted Sesame Oil
250g fresh mushrooms, sliced
4 cups of small broccoli florets

For marinade

3 tbsp Clearspring Mikawa Mirin
2 tbsp Clearspring Tamari Soya Sauce
2 tbsp Clearspring Tsuyu (dashi) OR water
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
4cm fresh ginger root, grated
juice of half a lemon

Method

1. Mix all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the tofu, and marinate for about half and hour to an hour, turning occasionally.

2. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the mushrooms, and sauté over a medium heat for 3 minutes. Remove the tofu from the marinade and add it to the frying pan along with the broccoli. Toss gently, and add 2 tablespoons of the marinade. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes.

3. Turn off the heat and remove the lid immediately to stop the broccoli from losing its colour. Serve hot with brown rice or roasted buckwheat.
