Vegetarian Niku Jaga With Konjac

I got this recipe off a Japanese Cooking Show called Dosanko Cooking, which is the longest running cooking show in Asia and has won a Guinness Record.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 200  g  konjac
• 2  large potatoes
• 1  carrot
• 200  g  deep fried tofu
• 3  tablespoons soy sauce
• 2  tablespoons sugar
• 2  tablespoons sake
• 1⁄2 cup water

Directions

1. Rub konjac in salt to soften and rinse it. Cut into cubes.
2. Dip tofu in hot water to get rid of excess oil. Cut into cubes also.
3. Cut carrots into chunks and potatoes into quarters.
4. Dump all ingredients, including seasoning and water into rice cooker and cook under "rice" setting.
5. Mine didn't stop cooking, so I turned it off after the potatoes and carrots were very soft and tender, about 30 minutes.
