Canapes with Miso Jam (Torimiso)
Posted October 14th, 2010 in Food 2 Comments »
Grilled vegetables, boiled eggs, and fresh silken tofu topped with miso jam with chicken mince.
It is a great party item or as a accompaniment to any alcohol! It also goes with hot steamed rice. 😀
Today I used zucchini, boiled eggs and tofu, but you can basically use any vegetables, such as broccoli, daikon radish, or even Chinese cabbage leaves. Anything goes with this tori-miso jam.
<Torimiso with Vegetables and Tofu> serves 2~4
- 100g chicken mince
- 50g red miso paste
- 30g sugar
- 1.5 tbs sake (cooking wine)
- zucchini
- 2 eggs
- 1 pack silken tofu (around 300~500g)
- sesame seeds and spring onion to garnish
aa
- Place chicken mince and sake in a small sauce pan, and turn on the heat. Over low heat, cook chicken while stirling with silicon spatula. Add sugar and miso paste, and stir until the miso mixture starts to look shiny and smooth. Be careful, miso easily gets burned. Turn off the heat and set aside.
- Make boiled eggs. Slice into half, or quoter.
- Slice zucchini, and grill until just cooked through.
- Cut tofu into bite size.
- Arrange zucchini, eggs and tofu on a serving plate. Top with miso mixture, and garnish with chopped spring onion or sesame seeds.
