In our household, it’s common to have a hearty breakfast and opt for a lighter meal in the evening.
While not strictly vegetarian, our meals often feature vegetables prominently. Meat is limited, but soy-based foods like tofu make frequent appearances.
What I’d like to introduce here is a dish called ‘Ninjin Shirishiri,’ which is dish number 5 in the photo above.
