Yum Yum Yum! It’s time to cook! That’s right everyone! Once again this week, we are bringing you eat like your anime faves where we show you how to make fantastic recipes at the drop of a hat! Sometimes easy, sometimes hard, always fun!
Gate: Kanochi nite Kaku Tatakaeri brought us a lot, but it also brought with it a staple in Japanese cuisine! Tonjiru or pork miso soup is something that you can find on most Japanese dinner tables, breakfast tables or even in cafeterias and restaurants as a staple side dish to meals like katsu or karaage! Also, as if it couldn’t get any better we will also be teaching you how to make a common main dish to couple with Tonjiru; Shiojake or Pan-Fried Coated Salmon straight from hit BL anime SUPER LOVERS! Shijake is a fairly healthy dish and is commonly eaten alongside a salad, rice, and tonjiru! Well, what are we waiting for? Let’s get right into it!
Tonjiru from Gate: Kanochi nite Kaku Tatakaeri
Our stomachs are currently imploding on themselves. Yum!
What you will need:(Note: Serves 2-3 people.)
How to Cook It:
1
Start by combining the olive oil in a medium sized pot and turn the heat on low. Add in the garlic and onion to gently roast them. This will not take long as once you can smell the garlic and the onions, they are done.2
Next, take your pork that you have cut up roughly and stir fry the pork in the same pot.3
Add in the carrots and konnyaku as well to stir fry.4
Once the carrots become aromatic, add in your chicken stock and the water.5
Bring this to a small boil. Once it does start to boil, add in the potato, reduce the heat to low again and simmer for about 20 minutes.6
Break apart the tofu with your hands into bite-sized pieces and gently add it to the pot as well.7
Melt the miso paste in a bit of water and then add it to the soup. Once it has been added in, kill the heat.8
It’s done!
(Note: Wash your hands. Raw pork does not play and neither does bacteria. )
Yum!

What you will need:(Note: Serves 2-3 people.)
Optional Ingredients:
If you cannot find these ingredients for the life of you in your local supermarket, you can always get them at an Asian grocery store OR via amazon!
How to Cook It:
1
The night before, take the crackers and after smashing them to the point that they become the side of bread flakes, heat them up in a heatproof bowl in your microwave for about 1-1.5 minutes. After it’s done, take a whisk and run it through the mixture. Microwave for another minute or so.2
Next, add in all of the ingredients with the (*) mark into the bowl mixing very well until it all starts to come together.3
Next in a large container, line up your fillets and then proceed to pour the entire wet breadcrumb mixture on top of it making sure to coat every single inch of the fillets. Next, soak in the mixture and chill overnight.4
The next morning or day depending on when you feel like eating them, simply pull them out of your fridge and heat up a frying pan. Simply cook them until they are cooked all the way through.
(Note: These fillets, essentially due to them being coated with bread, will burn easily. You need to cook on low to medium heat and you need to make sure that you keep a close eye on them. Feel free to gently dust with salt while cooking to flavor to your liking. )
(Double Note: Be very careful when handling raw fish. Wash your hands with warm water and antibacterial soap. )
If you did everything right, it should come out looking something like this!
Yum!
