40g white whine or sake (but not mirin)
35g (dry) soy schnitzel or VTP
35g water
(Optional topping )
Chopped green onions
Step1
Chop peeled potatoes and carrot into the size of cherry tomato (not smaller).
Slice onion and mince garlic and ginger
Sauté all the★ ingredients in the instant pot.
Step 2
Add all the rest of the ingredients in the instant pot.
Stir it once.
Step3
Pressure cook it just for 5 minutes.
After the pressure cooking , release the pressure (for 2 minutes ).
