Instructions

  1. 1

    Wrap tofu in a paper towel; cook in the microwave for 1 minute. Squeeze extra water from tofu and wrap in a dry paper towel. Let sit to drain extra water, about 5 minutes. Remove the paper towel and cut tofu into cubes.

    Combine luncheon meat, garlic, and ginger in a medium bowl; set aside. Whisk sake, miso paste, soy sauce, and sugar together in a separate bowl until well combined; set aside.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir eggs in hot oil until scrambled and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer eggs to a plate. Cook and stir tofu in the same skillet until browned on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer tofu to the plate with eggs. Cook and stir luncheon meat mixture in the same skillet until cooked through and garlic is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir cabbage, onion, carrots, and mushrooms in hot oil until onion is translucent and cabbage is softened, 10 to 12 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add scrambled eggs, tofu, luncheon meat, and sake mixture to vegetable mixture; stir to coat. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Garnish with green onion.
