SIMMERED KABOCHA PUMPKIN AND FRIED TOFU WITH SWEET SOY SAUCE
This is a kind of traditional Japanese nimono. It's really good for lunchboxes too. You can get Japanese kabocha pumpkin at a Japanese market, Chinese market, or another Asian market. The dish is even better the next day as leftovers (served hot or cold).

10 MIN JAPANESE SIMMERED TOFU HOT POT
This dish is the epitomy of 'home style' Japanese comfort food. This version is lightening quick, without the need to prepare the fish stock (dashi) that so many real Japanese dishes require. This staple is to be enjoyed in the fall or coming winter months! Enjoy.

OKRA JAPANESE STYLE
I have seen the huge differences of opinion over okra on 'Zaar, so I just had to try this (my first ever okra) when it was offered to me in Japan. I'm now an okra convert, but maybe it was the simple and delicious way it was served to me!
