STEP 1/19
Boil the potatoes thoroughly and mash them to prepare. Add a little salt when boiling potatoes,
STEP 2/19
Prepare the dehydrated tofu by crushing it. If you can afford it, put tofu on top of a kitchen towel and sprinkle a little salt to remove moisture better :)
STEP 3/19
Prepare the carrots by chopping them into small pieces.
STEP 4/19
Prepare the 5cm green onion by chopping it into small pieces.
STEP 5/19
Prepare the green pepper by mincing it into small pieces. At this time, remove the seeds from the peppers :)
STEP 6/19
Prepare 40g onions by mincing them.
STEP 7/19
In a mixing bowl, mix the mashed tofu and the previously trimmed vegetables well. Add 3 pinch of salt and 1 pinch of pepper to season.
* And most importantly
Add 2 tablespoons of starch powder. Starch gives viscosity, so it helps to stick together well when you make a meatball later on :)
STEP 8/19
Make a circle and coat the surface with glutinous rice powder evenly.
STEP 9/19
Bake in greased pan until golden brown.
*What's important here is!*
1. Put plenty of oil in the pan!
2. You have to cook it over low heat for a long time to cook the ingredients inside!
STEP 10/19
When the surface is golden brown, store the glutinous rice ball on the kitchen towel.
Chewy and savory glutinous rice ball is done!
STEP 11/19
Next, it's time to make the main dish, Jagatoro.
First, cut the top mushrooms into one finger length pieces and prepare them.
STEP 12/19
Grease a heated pan with plenty of oil, add minced garlic and chopped green onions to coat the oil with garlic and green onion.
You start making aglio e olio pasta in a similar way, right? :) Garlic and scallion are added to the food to make it taste much better!
STEP 13/19
Add the pork and onions in order and stir-fry until the onions are transparent.
STEP 14/19
Turn the heat down and add sauce A and mix well.
*If you heat it up high after adding the sauce, it can burn quickly! Make sure to turn the heat down and mix the ingredients well :)
STEP 15/19
*If you heat it up high after adding the sauce, it can burn quickly! Make sure to turn the heat down and mix the ingredients well :)
STEP 16/19
Add the stock and starch to adjust the concentration.
At this time, taste it and add or subtract salt according to your preference :)
*You have to mix the starch well so that it doesn't clump together in the dish!
STEP 17/19
If it's too thick, you can add more water while looking at the concentration, and then add or subtract salt according to your preference :)
STEP 18/19
When you're done, turn off the heat, add the top mushrooms, stir a few times, and finish.
The texture of enoki mushrooms is very soft, so don't put them in advance, but make sure to put them in the last order!
STEP 19/19
Put mashed boiled potatoes, glutinous rice dumplings, and jagatoro in a bowl and plate them nicely before completing!
Put the oyster sauce, stir-fry the pork in the spicy sauce, and it feels like Sichuan food! For me, jagatoro, soft potatoes, and chewy glutinous rice ball are the best combination :)
*Jagatoro?
It's a Japanese word for jaga (=potato) and toro (=muddy sticky sauce) and it means to pour sticky sauce on potatoes! :)
*Jagatoro goes well with rice like rice!
*You have to mix starch water well in advance so that it doesn't clump together in the dish!
