Introduction

This tofu burger contains chicken and tofu. Serve it with grated daikon radishes and sweet sauce. It was found on About.com and submitted by Setsuko Yoshizuka, an about.com guide. I use ground chicken and it is so much easier to mold into burger shapes. I also made 6 burgers not 4 like in the original recipe. This tofu burger contains chicken and tofu.

Put egg, ginger, green onion, bread crumb, tofu and chicken in a large bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Make four large burgers. Heat some oil in a large skillet. Fry the burgers on medium-high heat until brown. Turn them over and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook on low heat for a few minutes until cooked. Serve burgers into plates. Heat 2 tbsp of water, soy sauce, and mirin in the skillet and bring to a boil. Top burgers with grated daikon radish and pour the sauce over.
