Teriyaki Tofu Don

They look like fried chicken, but they are Tofu. This is a yummy ‘Donburi’ dish for vegetarians. If you omit the egg on top, this can be vegan. I used ALDI’s Organic Tofu, but any firm type Tofu can be used. Coating the Tofu pieces with Potato Starch is essential. The layer of Starch will turn jelly-like when combined with the sauce. Even the meat-lovers would enjoy this dish.
