Ingredients

Servings:2
  • 2 packs Frozen Udon Noodles
  • 4 pieces Aburaage (Deep-fried tofu pouches)
  • 800 ml Dashi stock
  • 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons Mirin
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar
  • 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 slices Narutomaki (Fish cake)(optional)
  • 1 pinch Shichimi Togarashi (Seven spice)(optional)
  • 100 ml Water (for simmering tofu)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the aburaage in a colander and pour boiling water over them to remove excess oil.

  2. 2

    In a small saucepan, combine 100ml water, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon mirin; add the tofu and simmer until the liquid is mostly absorbed.

  3. 3

    In a large pot, bring the 800ml dashi stock to a gentle boil.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining soy sauce, mirin, and sugar to the dashi pot to create the noodle soup base.

  5. 5

    Cook the udon noodles according to package instructions (usually 2-3 minutes for frozen noodles) in a separate pot of boiling water, then drain.

  6. 6

    Divide the cooked noodles into two deep serving bowls.

  7. 7

    Pour the hot dashi broth over the noodles until they are fully submerged.

  8. 8

    Top each bowl with two pieces of the sweetened inari tofu, fish cake slices, and a generous handful of green onions.
