Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the vegetables for the carrot tofu steak. Wash the carrot and onion, peel them, and then finely mince them using the multi-chopper attachment. Finely mincing ensures the ingredients blend evenly into the steak mixture for a smooth texture.
Step 2
Squeeze out as much water as possible from the tofu using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Then, use the mashing attachment of your ‘Dokkaebi Bangmangi’ or a fork to mash the tofu until it’s smooth and lump-free. Removing excess water is crucial to prevent a soggy mixture.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the finely minced carrot and onion, the squeezed tofu, and the ground pork. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Add the flour and egg, then mix and knead until all ingredients are well incorporated and form a cohesive dough. Once the mixture is ready, lightly wet your hands and shape the dough into round, flattened patties, similar to hamburger steaks.
Step 4
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium-low heat. Carefully place the shaped carrot tofu steaks in the pan and cook until golden brown on both sides. Ensure they are cooked through to the center, which might take a few minutes per side. Patience is key for a perfectly cooked steak.
Step 5
While the steaks are cooking, let’s make the delicious sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, sugar, ketchup, butter, and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly and all ingredients are well combined. Your flavorful steak sauce is ready!
Step 6
Arrange the nicely browned carrot tofu steaks on a plate. Generously spoon the warm steak sauce over the top. This delightful carrot tofu steak is a satisfying meal that’s perfect for both kids and adults!
Step 7
Now, let’s make the refreshing carrot juice! Wash the carrot and apple, peel them, and cut them into bite-sized pieces that will fit into your blender. Be sure to remove any seeds from the apple.
Step 8
In a 600ml cup or blender jar, combine the cut carrot and apple with 100ml of water. Use the blending function of your ‘Dokkaebi Bangmangi’ or a regular blender to process until everything is completely smooth and well-combined. Your fresh and vibrant carrot juice is ready to be enjoyed alongside your delicious steak.
