Ingredients

Creamy Tofu Sauce

  • 7 oz Tofu, silken (excess moisture removed)
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 Tbsp butter (melted)
  • 1/2 Tbsp Katakuriko potato starch (or corn starch)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp chicken bouillon powder
  • 1 oz shredded cheese (mozzarella, havarti)

Filling

  • 1/2 onion
  • 2 oz bacon
  • 2 potatoes (medium)
  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 pinch salt (to taste)
  • 1 pinch pepper (to taste)

Topping

  • 2 oz shredded cheese (mozarella, havarti)

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, whisk the tofu, and gradually add milk mixing thoroughly. Alternatively, you can process them in a food processor for a few seconds. Add the remaining ingredients for the sauce and mix well. Set aside.
  • Slice the onion thinly. Cut the bacon into bite-sized pieces. Slice the potatoes into 1/8" (3 mm) thin rounds. Microwave for a few minutes until soft.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the bacon until lightly browned. Add sliced onion and cook for a couple of minutes. Combine the potato slices with the bacon mixture and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Put the potato mixture in a baking dish. Cover it with the creamy tofu sauce and top it with shredded cheese. Bake for 20 minutes until hot and browned.
