4 Summary
Do you think it looks easy to cook?
The tips of well-done are to drain-well and to season-well beforehand.
If you have no konjac or not good at konjac, you can use more spinach and carrot instead.
If you have a difficulty of getting Mirin, it’s no problem to cook them without it.
Give it a try!
