As part of supper tonight, I made tofu no an kake, using the leaftover vegetable stir-fry from last night's supper.
an = sauce thickened with starch
kake = poured
今日の夕飯には、昨日の夕飯の残りの野菜炒めを使って、豆腐のあんかけを作りました。
Leftover stir-fry:
残りの野菜炒め：
Because this particular stir-fry does not contain meat, I added a can of tuna, together with some water. I tasted it, and added 1 tsp instant dashi and 1/4 tsp salt. Finally, I added about 2 tbsp katakuriko (potato starch) mixed with some water.
この野菜炒めには肉は入っていないので、ツナを一缶入れて、水も足しました。味見して、出汁の素を小さじ１と塩を小さじ1/4入れました。最後に、片栗粉を約大さじ２、水で溶いて入れました。
A common recipe says to heat tofu in a pot of hot water, but I simply heated a pack of tofu, previously cut into 16 cubes, in a microwave for 1 minute.
通常のレシピーだと、豆腐をお湯の入った鍋で温めるのですが、私は、16個に切った豆腐１パックを電子レンジで１分温めました。
Pour the an over the tofu.
豆腐にあんをかけます。
Very tasty.
とても美味しかったです。
Be imaginative, and make your own tofu no ankake.
想像力を豊かにして、自分自身の豆腐のあんかけを作ってください。

Thanks for explaining what あんかげis. I often cook my tofu in a similar fashion. Have you tried heating up Oyster sauce with a little sugar and sesame oil and pour over warmed tofu? Sometimes I stir fried some shiitake and then add the oyster mixture and pour over warmed tofu and garnish with some green onions. とても美味しい！
okasan: Your versions sound delicious! Unfortunately, I usually don't have oyster sauce in the kitchen, and when a recipe calls for oyster sauce, I simply replace it with soy sauce...
Anonymous: Thanks for checking my humble recipe!
