Dashi
- Bring 2 litres of water and 20g kombu to 70 degrees celsius.

- Strain your dashi with a sieve and kitchen paper.
Ingredients Preparation
- Wash and peel the satoimo and burdock root.
- Cut into bite sized pieces.
- Wash the satoimo in cold water and keep the burdock root submerged in water for the time being so it does not discolour.

- Cut the stalk off the shiitake mushrooms and cut into 1cm slices.
- Snap off the ends of the green beans, peeling the strand off along the side.
- Wash the konjac and pat dry. Using a spoon or your hands, break into bite sized pieces.
- Cut the aburaage in half, then into 2 cm slices.
- Slice the pork belly into quarters.
- Boil the pork to remove any impurities and excess fat. Drain and set aside.
- Fry the burdock root, carrots, satoimo, daikon radish, konjac jelly and aburaage till they are 50% cooked.
Assembling the Tonjiru
- Bring the dashi to a boil
- Sieve in the 100g of yellow miso.
- Add in the burdock root, carrots, satoimo, daikon radish, konjac jelly and aburaage. Then add in the pork.
- Leave on a low simmer for 10 minutes, while skimming off the scum.
