Preparation: 

  1. Cut the tofu into approximately 1 inch dice and boil them in lightly salted water to make it tenderer. Set aside.

  5. Add the stock and, when it is hot, the tofu, mixing carefully so as not to break it up.

  7. Mix the potato starch and water thoroughly and add it to the casserole.
  8. Cook until the sauce thickens.
